Bible Reader Barker Gains Noted Fame in New Bedford
A New Bedford man Robert T Barker is famed for reading the Bible through from start to finish ninety nine times. The piece comments on the Bible’s challenging sections and ridicules some parts as not worth frequent perusal while noting local and national political chatter and a plug for Syrup of Figs. It references public figures and opinions about the city election and broader politics.
