FOOTNOTES

{36} Mr. William Holborn, our Church Secretary, informs me that the cup

with handles is the original communion cup. It is made of lustred

pewter. When the number of communicants increased, one of the deacons

remembered that he had a cup at home which was suitable for the purpose.

He accordingly produced the second cup, which bears underneath it the

words “a friend of the cause.” The metal of which this cup is made is

matter of conjecture.
