Spurgeon:
Thank you Andrew, I have also acquired this little volume recently. Following is a footnote at the end of the publisher's preface: "Interestingly, there is now a copy in the C.H. Spurgeon collection of the Curry Library, William Jewell College, Liberty, Missouri. The College acquired Spurgeon's private library containing thousands of volumes when it was put up for sale for L500 in 1905." I assume that means 500 pounds. I have not finished reading the book yet, but as other Watson writings, it is very thorough.
