**Welcome To The World of Free Plain Vanilla Electronic Texts**
**Etexts Readable By Both Humans and By Computers, Since
1971**
*These Etexts Prepared By Hundreds of Volunteers and
Donations*
Information on contacting Project Gutenberg to get Etexts, and further
information is included below. We need your donations.
Project Gutenberg Etext of Deuterocanonical Books of the Bible, also
known as the Apocrypha, please remember that these are not not in
their final form until the last day of the stated month. In this particular
case, there has been some discussion on this as we had no titles
received with these books: and uncertainty was also evident about what
order to present them in.
April, 1994 [Etext #124]
The Deuterocanonical Books of the Bible, known as the Apocrypha

******This file should be named apoc10.txt or apoc10.zip*******
Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, apoc11.txt.
VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, apoc10a.txt.
Encoded under the direction of Robert Kraft for distribution through
the Center for Computer Analysis of Texts (CCAT) at the University of
Pennsylvania. Robert Kraft
Bob Kraft, who produced these Etexts has been VERY kind in this and
has allowed us to present them as we choose. However, I am short of
time at the moment, and therefore am leaving them as I had them, other
than placing his suggested titles in each book, as they appear to be
more complete that what I used as I had no titles to begin with and had
to expand from abbreviations. I am also including two suggested tables
of contents, and ask that a reader feel free to reorder their own copies as
desired; please do not repost modified copies in the name of Project
Gutenberg, as we hope to have new editions out of our own. However,
it is always the primary goal of Project Gutenberg to get these books
out on time in a manner that is 99.9% accurate, which I hope we will
have accomplished by the end of the month.
The purpose of release at this time is strictly to make this as available
as possible for Easter, 1994, which is April 3.
We are now trying to release all our books one month in advance of the
official release dates, for time for better editing. We have this as a goal
to accomplish by the end of the year but we cannot guarantee to stay
that far ahead every month after that.
Please note: neither this list nor its contents are final till midnight of the
last day of the month of any such announcement. The official release
date of all Project Gutenberg Etexts is at Midnight, Central Time, of the
last day of the stated month. A preliminary version may often be posted
for suggestion, comment and editing by those who wish to do so. To be
sure you have an up to date first edition [xxxxx10x.xxx] please check
file sizes in the first week of the next month. Since our ftp program has
a bug in it that scrambles the date [tried to fix and failed] a look at the

file size will have to do, but we will try to see a new copy has at least
one byte more or less.

We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The fifty
hours is one conservative estimate for how long it we take to get any
etext selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and
analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. This projected audience is
one hundred million readers. If our value per text is nominally
estimated at one dollar then we produce $4 million dollars per hour this
year as we release some eight text files per month: thus upping our
productivity from $2 million.
The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away One Trillion Etext
Files by the December 31, 2001. [10,000 x 100,000,000=Trillion] This
is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers, which is 10%
of the expected number of computer users by the end of the year 2001.
We need your donations more than ever!
