D. O. C. GETS ORIGINAL COPY OF PICTURE OF JOHN BURROUGHS

Through the generosity of Mr. Henry Rood of Pleasantville, New York, and of the NewYork Times, the Outing Club has just come into possession of a letter from John Burroughs, the naturalist who died recently, to Mr. Alden, former editor of Harper's Magazine, and also of the original of the picture of Burroughs which was used by the Times upon the occasion of the naturalist's death.

The picture, which will be framed and hung in the Outing Club office, is by the Times staff artist, Mr. Russan, while the letter will be kept as a part of the permanent collection of the Outing Club.
