"ARLSBAD – Yet another gem has been added to the treasure troves at the Gemological Institute of America, which this year is celebrating its 75th anniversary."
"Two manuscripts dating back to the late 19th century were donated to the nonprofit educational and research institute late last year."
"The books contain more than 2,500 personal notes and business letters written by American diamond-cutting pioneer Henry D. Morse during the 1870s and 1880s. "
