Professor Lyon's Reading.

In the time of Moses there ruled over Assyria a king named Ramman-nirarl, a great warrior and builder. From the ruins of a temple which he restored comes an alabaster tablet, twelve inches by nine, with an inscription recording the restoration. This tablet, recently presented to the Semitic Museum, will be the subject of Professor Lyon's Assyrian reading in the Fogg Art Museum at four o'clock today. It will be exhibited and explained, and will be illustrated by lantern slides giving views of Assyrian books, ruins and temples.
