Can't find that exact dictionary anywhere on the internet, but a Chambers Encyclopedia from 1903 is on sale on ebay for �10 + �20 p+p so it's probably worth something similar. Obviously this isn't a massive amount and there's no guarantee of a sale so you could always just sell it to a dealer or second hand bookshop for a bit less; or see if the Sunday school still exists and give it back to them!
