Bio History Note

German - more research is needed but it seems as if this book was bought by Samuel Noffsinger in 1803.

"Eli Noffsinger his book boughtSeptember the 29th AD 1832" and then it looks like this sentence was also written in German beneath.

"This book was sent to Soll Noffsinger in the year 1870." "Union City, Indiana." It is hard to determine if this is the exact transcription?
