The Bible, its cover tattered, some pages brittle and yellowing, was in a box of pictures and miscellaneous items from the estate of Addie Davidson DeLong Wright of White County. Addie DeLong, as she was commonly known, had died in 1989, but the box remained with family members until another survivor died.
