The original owner, M(ary) E(lizabeth) Fontaine of Clarksdale, Mississippi was given this by Rev. Walter Dakin, Rector of St. George's Episcopal Church in Clarksdale where she attended. Rev. Dakin was the grandfather of American playwright, Tennessee (Tom) Williams.
This was given to her in 1920 but believe this New Testament is a bit older.
