The Library has received an interesting picture of Washington Allston, in which he is represented in the act of painting. The picture is about 70 years old and was originally in the possession of Mrs. Craig, who lived in Allston's family and afterwards in the family of Mrs. John E. Lodge. Mrs. Craig left the picture to Mrs. Lodge with a request that at the latter's death the picture should come to the Harvard Library.
Dr. C. E. Cameron, who was arrested on March 15 on the charge of stealing bookplates from the Library, appeared before the District Court on Saturday and waived examination. The case went over to the Grand Jury, which meets on June 4. Many of the bookplates which were sold have been returned to the Library by the purchasers.
