The following additional notices of the In- 

 dian new testament and bible have come to 

 hand since the main article was put in type. 



(8*) The new testament of 1661. A copy in 

 the Library of Glasgow University, (Glasgow, 

 not mentioned in the list on p. 137. Press-mark, 

 BE 6— d. 9. Bound in old calf, without letter- 

 ing. Size of the leaf, 7^^ by 5| inches. It con- 

 tains both the English and Indian titles, with 

 the diamond-shaped figure on the latter, and 

 agrees with the collation given on p. 133, in- 

 cluding the two original blank leaves. There 

 is in it the following inscription : "Ex libris 

 Bibliothecae Universitatis Glasguensis, Will. 

 Dunlop, prin. Empt: ptiblicis Academiaesump- 

 tibus 1691." Information from the librarian, 

 Mr. James Lymburn. 



(14) The new testament of 1661, mentioned 

 on p. 138. ( 14) The bible of 1663, mentioned on p. 

 145. The Rev. Thomas K. Abbott, B. D., libra- 

 rian of Trinity College, Dublin, writes under 

 date of November 10th, 1890 : " I believe all but 

 one of our copies of Eliot's Bible were disposed 

 of as duplicates some years ago. The only- 

 copy retained is classed Press B. 2. 3." It was 

 presented by Robert Hawkshaw, A. B., 21 May, 

 1770, and, as respects the sides, the binding ia 

 original, but the back has been repaired. The 

 Indian title appears to be on the original first 

 leaf of signature A of the new testament, and 

 the diamond-shaped figure is on the Indian new 

 testament title. The size of the leaf is 7^ by 

 5J inches. The Indian title precedes the leaf 

 of contents. This title is mounted, and, to- 

 gether with the leaf of contents and the dedi- 

 cation, appears to be of later date. The book 

 is perfect, and in very good condition. 



(13*) The bible of 1663, third variety. A 

 copy in the Biblioth^que Nationale at Paris, 

 not mentioned in the list on p. 145. Press-mark, 

 A. 2484. In old calf binding, probably original, 

 without lettering. Size of the leaf, 7^ by 5| 

 inches. It contains the English general title, 

 the dedication of the whole bible, the leaf of 

 contents. Genesis to Malachi, the Indian new 

 testament title (with the diamond-shaped fig- 

 ure), Matthew to Revelation, the metrical 

 psalms, and the final leaf of rules. The book 

 was purchased for the Royal Library in the 

 time of Louis XIV, and is entered as No. A..
