Discovered Four Ancient Caves Which Will Be Further Explored (Jewish Telegraphic Agency)

A. F. Futterer of the Los Angeles Bible Institute, with the hope that he may succeed in finding the Ark of the Covenant, hidden since the destruction of the First Temple, proceeded to Mount Nebo alone. Mr. Futterer was unable to form a search party and undertook the task himself.

In a statment to the correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency he declared that he found at Nebo four caves of antique date which will be explored by archaeologists of Jerusalem.
