! Mrs. Murdock's talk consumed an hour
and thirty minutes, and was quite inter-
/ esting. Mrs. Murdoch is not an art critic,
but an art historian. Her lecture last
night was devoted mostly to the works
/ Of Devinchi, Raphael and Michael Angelo.
| She exhibited about sixty handsome pho
| tographs of original world famous paint
| ings and explained the circumstances I'M
| der which some of the worlds most IA
nous pieces of art were produced. Her
! lecture dealt largely with art in the thir-
teenth, fourteenth, fifteen and sixteenth
| centuries.
Mrs. Murdoch mas made art a special
line of study, and her familiarity with the
subject and ease of expression make her
| lectures intensely interesting. She held
| the closest attention of her audience last
night from the moment she began her
lecture until it was closed.
'At the close of her talk. the Misses
Ida and Blanche Van Horn served the
| guests with frappe. The receipts of the
| occasion were just about sufficient to de-
| fray the expenses, which was all that
the Cary Circle desired. Everybody who
attended the lecture feels that they were
| greatly benefited in an educational way
| by Mrs. Murdock's talk"
