Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 36, Number 107, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 6 September 1904 — A Crownless Coronation. [ARTICLE]

A Crownless Coronation.

A coronation without a crown sounds distinctly Irish, yet such was in effect the ceremony in which Henry 111 took the most prominent part at Gloucester on Oct 28, 1216.. On this occasion a plain circle was used instead of a crown, which had been lost with the jewels and other baggage of King John In passing the marshes of Lynn or the Wash near Wlsbeach.—London Telegraph.
