“On Easter Eve we had 'The Story of the Cross,' illustrated with limelight-lantern views, by Mr. Jacques, from Cradley. Rev. G. Craggs, our Curate, spoke a few words about the pictures as they were thrown upon the sheet. We had a good number present, mostly adults, who, we believe, were deeply impressed.”
