The library has just received a valuable shipment of books on Swiss History, a gift from W.B. Cutting, Jr., '06 and Assistant Professor A.C. Coolidge '87. There are about 400 volumes in the collection. Mr. Cutting, who is at present living at St. Moutz, Switzerland, has devoted much time during the past winter to gathering these books. The collection contains many valuable old books and later treatises on the various points of Swiss history.
The Library has just received as a gift from Mrs. Paine the manuscript copy of the score on which the late Professor J.K. Paine h.'69 was at work at the time of his death. It is entitled "Lincoln, a Tragic Tone Poem," and consists of twenty-six folio pages of music. Professor Paine had in mind for many years this work, which he hoped would be his greatest achievement.
