Gately & CO

[Tim Leith]

Does anyone have any information on these bibles?  I discovered a cousin that has what appears to be a Gately & Co family bible. (based on internet image searches and similar-looking bibles)

Also, it is Masonic as there are many Masonic symbols on the front cover.  Any particular reason(s) as to why the family would have one of these - would the original owner or recipient had to have been a Mason?

I have an image of the front cover however this site is not allowing me to upload it for some reason, I don't believe it is too large.

Thank you!!
Tim
