The veteran bookbinder also has
overhauled a huge 45-pound Bible
which belonged to John F. Morgan, a
Confederate officer during the Civil
War. The Bible, passed down through the
Morgan family, is now owned by one of
Morgan's four living grandnieces, Mr..
Cams daughter-in-law.
Until six years ago, Mr.. Cams home
bookbinding consisted of casually re-
pairing two or three books week for a
church or neighbor. AS word spread
about his skilled hands, the books be,
gan to pile high. Last year, more than
1000 books were returned to their
owners looking incredibly new. One
woman even accused Mr.. Cam of buy
ing new books instead of repairing the
ones she gave him.

Cam "bindery." Pentagon general

bookbinding job performed by the hand
craftsman and his wife. A large percent

diplomats and servicemen who have
transferred to other parts of the country
and of the world. They always return.

II EMMETT w. CANN has leafed
through thousands of books in pur
suit of his avocation- and the books are
the better for it. For he is one of this
country's gradually disappearing prac-
titioners of the ancient art of hand book
binding.
What for many years was relaxing
hobby became furious activity when
the occasional requests for new spine
or cover for book or the preservation
of precious paper turned into flood
of orders for complete overhauls of vol
umes of books. The few hand tools at
