Historic FDR Bible Went Missing for a Few Hours after NYC Mayor’s Swearing-In

New York City’s new mayor Bill De Blasio was officially sworn in on New Year’s Day, and he placed his hand on an old Bible that belonged to FDR during the ceremony. It’s an important, historical tome presented by the FDR Presidential Library that was promptly lost and caused a panic for a few hours.

Yes, according to The New York Post, the Bible De Blasio swore in on went missing for a while, and city officials were on a manhunt of sorts for hours to try and find it.

“They had the whole detail looking through blankets,’’ a police source said of the scramble… But around 2:30 pm, the bible was nowhere to be found, a source said, sparking a massive book-hunt at City Hall. “We were looking in garbage cans outside, in all the bags,” one searcher said.

Luckily, someone finally found the Bible around 5 P.M., which elicited much applause from the crowd and some obvious sighs of relief from everyone who didn’t want to find out just how angry presidential librarians can get.

1. No mention of where it was found

I wonder why they did not divulge where they located it?
