Title: 
Leaf from a Thomson's Bible
Creator: 
Aitken, Jane, 1764-1832
Summary: 
The first translation of the Septuagint into English by Charles Thomson, who was the first Secretary of Congress, and who retired from that position to continue his Biblical studies (1789). The importance of this version, the result of twenty years' labor with little or no assistance of reference material or scholars, has frequently been recognized. It was freely consulted by the revision committee of 1881.
