> While dining out one evening at Lord Harcourt's residence at Nuneham in 1848 he was shown a silver locket containing an object resembling pumice stone. He popped the object in his mouth, perhaps to try and find out what mineral it was, and swallowed it. It was in fact part of the mummified heart of Louis XIV of France which had been taken from the royal tomb by a member of the Harcourt family.

@tetris11 Dollop about it: https://omny.fm/shows/the-dollop-with-dave-anthony-and-gareth-reynolds/396-the-donner-party

@writingprompts Much better scan and more background here: https://bsky.app/profile/booleanunion.bsky.social/post/3lcj2ef2tbs2b

@writingprompts Okay, so I did a semi-deep dive into this, and it seems like this is not a Chick Tract (different art style anyway), but from something called the "Truth for Youth Bible", however not the current one (which can be found here: https://revivalfires.org/ and is - compared to this - incredibly boring) but likely the third edition with entirely different illustrations. (see: https://x.com/abtnatural/status/1222721453373755394?lang=ar )

I am still trying to find a good scan of the whole thing. So far no luck, though.

@TheTechnician27

I'm pretty sure it's based on one.
