o-were not the foreign pictures that you speak Of
put upon the catalogue for e1hibi,ionf
A-Some of them were and do not know but all
Q-were there different cataloguesl
x-Ysa
o-Give us the names of the different kinds Of cat
i-The regular catalogue for distribution was
headed; and another catalogue headed Works OF
Art ON Exhibition the foreign pictures purchased by
Mr.. Austin both of these aoguss; cannot
ate positively whether any foreign pictures put
the catalogue for distribution without looking at the
Q-why were these pictures taken Boston and sold
A-Becsuse the COMMITTEES thought thsv could get
better prices from them Boston, they getting
old here aud another reason was that there was no
other good place to sell them except where they were
purchased the committee did not dare to put them
the list for distribution because they pointed out
in the gallery IS foreign works.
Q.-Whss works Of art and foreign productions
purchased rs . matter of speculation
Al nave given two, and will give the rest to.mor
o-what pictures belonging to Mr.. Austin were pur-
chased by the Art Uniony
A-one Of them was the Beefshootersp Mr. Austin
bought II of Mr.. Bingham he dissatisfied with it,
sold it to the Art Union and drew checks in Bnghams
name, payable TO bearer; he had previously given Mr.
Bingham an order to paint picture he drew from the
check payable to bearer.
QWhy do you say the checks payable to bearsrs
sight drafts for 500 each think they were drawn by
Mr. Cozzens and allied up by Mr. justin; think Mr. Aus
tin filled them in his handwriting but to this
shall be able to speak more fully morrow think the
price of that picture $500 and not $3.50.
Q-Wsre not those drafts (handing documents to wit
messy paid for the s'Beefshootersi'
Al think not, for there other works pur
chased of Mr.. Bingham at that time; know Mr. Aus
tin purchased crayon drawing from Mr.. Miles,
which afterwards 'rung in" on the committee,
titled "Study Of Head" this after wards dstri
buted sold; he did not fill up a check, payable to
bearer TO for that purchase but he gave order
for the money, and owed it for long tme after
wards Mr.. Austin billed il to the Art Union
Odd you mean to be understood, in your direct
examination, to say that G W. Glass, Of London was
not American citizen2
Al meant to be understood my believing so, and
often having heard that he Of English BIRTH never
natuIazed, and residing in London.
Q.-Was not the Art Union in the habit of buying his
pictures before he went to LondonS
Al do not know that he ever went to London or
that he WAS in this country
