The Director received a request from the Ville de Paris Exhibition for a loan of a painting which was accepted by the board. The Martyn bequest was now in the Gallery's possession, and it was resolved that these pictures should be lent to the Municipal Gallery.

A colleciton of medallions were also offered to the Gallery and accepted [NGI 8138-8141]. 3 pictures were accepted from the Bridgford bequest [NGI 855, NGI 857, NGI 2746].
