Summary

Writing blank entitled The life of Jonah; Biblical references given with each caption; has pencil annotation: "Amity Hall".; Jonah cast into the sea; But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish; So the shipmaster came unto him and said unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper, arise, call upon thy God, if so by that God will think upon us, that we perish not; And they said every one to his fellow, Come and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah; And the Lord spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land; For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth; And the Lord God prepared a gourd, and made it to come over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, & c.; Life of Jonah
