GREAT DIAMONDS

To illustrate this division of his lecture, Mr. Spurgeon held up a morocco case containing facsimiles in crystal glass of the thirteen most remarkable historic diamonds. Looking down to those who occupied the lower platform, he facetiously remarked: “To let you see them would be as difficult as showing you a basin of soup without spilling it.” The case was lent to Mr. Spurgeon by his friend Mr. John Neal, the well-known silversmith in Edgware Road.
