MORGAN MAKES LOAN TO MUSEUM

J. Pierpont Morgan '89 has loaned to the Fogg Art Museum five large and beautiful illustrated pages from an Italian choir book, probably of the 14th century. The sheets are richly decorated with gold and gorgeous colors. The scenes represented are Three Angels appearing to Abraham, the Nativity, the Adoration of the Magi, the Last Supper and the Ascension.

In one of the rooms on the ground floor there is a pathetic relic of Rheims Cathedral, which has recently been sent to the Museum by a French friend of the University, who was here last year. It is a bit of molten lead which had fallen down from the roof on to the pavement, catching one or two little scraps of stone work in its fall. The relic has sentimental but not artistic value.
