Kbh. : Bibelselskabet for Danmark, 1911. 963, 331 p., maps (color) ; 18 cm. Index card in Bible reads: For Dana College, 2848 College Drive, Blair, Nebraska 68008. From Winnifed Robinson, Box 232, Lewis, Iowa 51544. Name in Bible: Myrta Eliza Stacy, 31 Marts 1912. Attached letter reads as follows: Lewis, Iowa, October 1-1980. Dana College, Blair, Nebraska. This package contains a Danish Bible in the older script. It belonged to Myrta Stacy of Ringsted, Iowa who was my husband's first wife. I have an idea but no proof that she attended Dana for awhile. My husband Arthur R. Robinson did so and it looks like his writing. I figured it would be best received and used on the college either in the general library, Bible study or Danish language classes. Several years ago I sorted out books and thought where they could go to be best received. A young married woman who didn't like to read (our) books took the books and placed them in some uncleaned book cases I had used in the kitchen. As most of the time I find it hard to reach up and tire easily it wasn't until lately I got at the books. The leather in the spine of the book had been a little loose but I have no idea what happened to the leather on the cover. Possibly the librarian will know if it can be restored or how to replace the cover. I know the clover leaves were in it when I first found it in a storage box and one page I found was like some one had put a thumb on it and scuffed it loose. Hope you can find the Bible useful. Not being of Danish ancestry and not being good at languages I never learned to read Danish but as a teenager I read Chaucer, Beowulf and other books in the old English script. I like the look of such printing and own ornate book reports printed in my hand in that style so I hope some people there will enjoy the use of the book. After my husband died I did give Dr. Einer Juul some pictures of his to pass on to the school but do not think they got there, but it doesn't matter as duplicates are probably in your files. I had given him some to keep also. Sincerely, Winnifed M B Robinson. 20161004. Bible.
