Request: First ever issue of the WT (scan or quote)

inkling

I am looking for an article on the front page of the first ever issue of The Watchtower.

Is there anyway to find a scan/quote of this?

I has a great quote I can't quite remember the wording of...

hmm...

Well, I am quite sure it was the first issue, but i guess i don't know what page.

it was an article about searching for truth wherever it may be found, like gems or flowers among thorns, or somthing like that...

Atlantis

Perhaps, this one? Zion's Watch Tower-1879-July-p.8 "WHAT IS TRUTH?" ( See bottom of scan) "A truth presented by Satan himself is just as true as a truth stated by God."

Perhaps, this one?

Yes!!! that is totally it.

Could you post the rest of the article (p9) too?

thanks so much

It never had a single sentence that ended in a preposition, if it is the one I am thinking of...
