S 3 During the sitting of the Tank Commission the presence of a tank '5 outside the chapei in Lincoln’s Inn Sa proved an object of attraction to all 13 passers-by. The latest'military arm •i presents an unfamiliar appearance vj on historic ground, but although it has left tracks on the asphalt, was •; far more welcome than some warlike •V visitors to this spot since 1914. They £ were distinctly hostile, for it will be it remembered that the neighbourhood K suffered from Zeppelin bombs, which ■!; damaged the chapel, breaking the J: stained windows and injuring the jj decorated arches on which it is raised. By the old gateway near the spot where the tank stood Thurloe, >■ secretary to Oliver Cromwell. the >' real founder of the present army, £ resided. Another interesting visitor “ to London’s legal zone is to be seen in the large German ocean-going f; submarine Deutschland, moored off £; the Temple.
