Two valuable drawings by Samuel Prout, the celebrated English water-color artist, have been taken from the walls of the freehand drawing room in Robinson Hall. One of these was a pencil and reed-pen drawing in brown ink of Louvain cathedral: the other and more valuable drawing was a small water-color of a mediaeval bridge and gate-tower with figures.
When the loss was first discovered it was believed that the drawings must have been taken for use and temporarily misplaced by one of the students, but thorough search and inquiry has failed to discover them and it is now evident that the drawings have been stolen. The loss is the more to be regretted as the measures necessary to protect the other drawings will make impossible the perfect freedom of access to the collections which has been permitted hitherto.
