SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT.
The Putney Divisional Library Committee desire to convey
to Her Grace the Duchess of Marlborough, the ladies
of the Committee, to the Librarian, and all who assisted
in promoting the Bazaar and Exhibition held on the 7th and
8th of May last, their most cordial thanks. The undertaking
proved most successful, and has resulted in the addition to the
Library of some 550 volumes, many of them being expensive
works, such as Symonds's " Renaissance in Italy," Mortimer
Menpes's "Japan," Mrs. Jameson's " Sacred and Legendary Art,"
modern works on Chemistry, Electricity, and Metallurgy, and
useful Topographical works. To the Reference library there
have been added modern German, French, Spanish, and Italian
Dictionaries, several excellent Dictionaries of Quotations, and the
supplementary volumes of the Encyclopaedia Britannica.
The Committee have placed in each volume a label shewing
the means by which it was added to the Library.
