Haight Family Bible

While cleaning out my mother's (Marion E. Pitcher, wife of R. Alton Pitcher) house at Cape Cod, MA this past summer I came across the Haight family bible which I have in my possession. There were not a lot of entries in the bible but the ones that were are transcribed below exactly as they appear:

 

Ervin Pitcher and Carrie M. Haight were my grandparents. I'm sure the bible was transported from the Haight/Pitcher family farm (where the Haight family cemetery is located) on Cole Hill Road, East Berne, when my mother sold it and returned to Cape Cod a number of years ago.
