Bible presented to Lady Inglis by the Ladies of Halifax, Nova Scotia, 1858. The ladies of the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia, have recently presented to Lady Inglis a bible, "as a token of their sympathy with her privations and sufferings, and of their estimation of the Christian hope, faith, and fortitude by which she was animated and sustained at Lucknow; and of their respect and admiration for its heroic and brave defender, Major-General Sir John E. W. Inglis, K.C.B. a native of Halifax." The bible is bound in antique morocco of a rich purple colour, mounted with corners and clasps in gold. The edges illuminated with the rose and mayflower (the emblem of Nova Scotia), and an illuminated vellum page with an inscription...The bible is inclosed in a carved oak casket lined with crimson velvet'.
