Old Masters Taken by British Officer
From the Ruins of Ypres
Cathedral.

The king of the Belgians will shortly
have returned to him two famous pic
lures which were rescued, four years
ago, from Ypres cathedral. 1t ap-
pears that during the bombardment Of
Ypres in 1915 a young British artil-
lery officer noticed inside the cathe-
dral, which was being heavily shelled,
that the only things not shattered by
German fire were two large Flemish
masters, dated 1000, hanging some 20
feet high on the walls. How to get
them and save them for Belgium was
the question which Immediately pre-
scented itself. The officer called two
private soldiers to help him, and with
the aid of some long gas pipes which
had been blown down by the German
fire, and two large hooks, the pictures
were lowered to the ground. The Of
ficer, Lieutenant Daniels, r. A.. then
cut the pictures out Of their frames
and put them in a large sack, which he
used for a time as bed. In the end
he took them to London, where, with
the approval of the Belgian minister,
they have been placed on exhibition
prior to being returned to King Albert
at Brussels.
