SET OF ROLLO BOOKS FOUND IN MISS LOWELL'S LIBRARY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Miss Amy Lowell's library, bequeathed by her at her death last spring to the Widener Library, is at present being catalogued and arranged by the library authorities. In certain fields it is one of the finest private libraries in the world, her collection of Keatsiana being practically unique.

Among the most valuable books in the entire bequest, it is reported, is a complete collection of the Rollo books, written some years ago for young people. They were given to Miss Lowell, it appears in her childhood, and kept until today when they have attained a considerable value. Single copies from the series are frequently to be found, but an entire set is believed to be extremely rare.
