_--F.G.X. will be much obliged for
information on the following points:--
1. Which is the most correct edition, as to printing and orthography, of
Daniel's Irish New Testament?
2. Does the edition now on sale by the Bible Society bear the character
for incorrectness as to these points, which, judged by itself, it
appears to deserve, or is it really, though "bad, the best?"
3. F.G.X. is far advanced with an Irish Testament Concordance. Can any
one possessed of the requisite information give him hope of the
acceptableness of such a publication? He should expect it to be chiefly
useful to clerical Irish students in acquiring a knowledge of words and
construction; but the lists of Irish Bibles disposed of of late years
would lead to the supposition of its being desirable also as pointing
out the place of passages to the native reader.
4. Does the Cambridge University Library contain a copy of the first
edition of Daniel's translation?
