On headed notepaper, 'National Exhibition of Works of Art, Leeds, 1868'. - Houghton's Rubens [listed in the catalogue of the exhibition as being 'Le Jardin d'Amour'] is 'now on the screen in the centre of the German & Flemish Gallery'. Was much surprised that the Fryston pictures 'had not been sent for'; gave 'the list of them, the majority being Yorkshire worthies, to Mr Hailstone long ago'. Concludes he 'would not take any he had not selected himself': the same thing has happened in other cases. True that Houghton is 'the gainer by it', but Waring still regrets it.
