The books relate mainly to Germanie and Scandinavian legends and folk-lore, and to medieval romance. Part of the books will be retained in Gore Hall, part will be placed in the library of the German Department, and part in the Child Memorial Library.

Hendricks, of Pittsfield, Mass. Part of these will be placed in the library of the German Department and a considerable number, which consist of text books, will be given to the text book library at Phillips Brooks House.
