By special request from a former member of Croton's Our Saviour Church---and by way of the outstanding newspaper archives of The Croton Historical Society...1962:  The examination of a century old bible--from an exhibition of various versions of the Holy Scriptures at Our Saviour. Click on the image...THE CAPTION READS: 


Examining a century-old family bible in a display of various versions of the Holy Scripture set up at Our Saviour, by the Luther league.  Gabrielsen is John Gabrielsen sponsor-teacher and Ms. Gustave Johansson.  Left as a final gift to her son, some unknown mother wrote in pencil this message: "I leave it to my dearly beloved and only son...My heart's desire is that he may study it well..."  A copy of a Hebrew Old testament, Greek new Testament and various translations in English are also on display for the general public in the rear of the Nave.
