Adina the Jewish maiden of Alexandria (Undated)


Drawn by Tallison , engraved by J.C. Butre. The prints are so small that I could barely read them. I had to do some research about Adina.
According to the very famous and popular book by Igeham , Josheph Hale, "The House of David", Adina supposedly sojourned in Jerusalem and witnessed the career of Jesus.
