EXHIBITION OF SKETCHES
So considerable lias been the interest shown in the collection of water-colour sketches of early New Zealand loaned by Mr. It. S. Abraham, of Pttlnicrston North, that it has been decided to hang them in the print room of tho Art Gallery. The collection, which numbers 95 pictures, is the work of Mrs. Abraham, wife of the first Bishop of Wellington, and tho Rev. T. B. Hutton, a student at St. John's College. The pictures, which were done in the middle part of last century, depict scenes around Auckland —the Waitemata Harbour. the coast and the Bay of Islands —before the many changes that have taken place altered the character of the country. The pictures will remain on view for some weeks.
