Greetings and salutations, all...please forgive the cross-post if you find
this elsewhere.
First, let it be known that I'm not a member of the Cady family, but I felt
that this information would be of great interest to those researching the name.
While vacationing in Delaware with my family I came across a Masonic edition
of the Bible in a flea market, and while flipping through it, I found this
information inside. I picked up the Bible and brought it home, and the
information below is transcribed from the inside covers. The handwriting is a little
odd and seems to be that of two or more different people. Please bear with me
if I get something a little off. :) There are a few discrepancies, but I'm
transcribing this as I see it. Publishing date on the Bible is 1924.
