Foxcroft Hall, one of the two dining places used by students of the University for many years, was badly damaged by fire early yesterday morning. The fire was discovered about 1 o'clock in the kitchen in the rear of the wooden frame building, and before the firemen arrived had worked its way between the partitions and into the blind attic above, so that they had a long task before they were certain that they had it under control.

Each company will therefore be housed in a long, low frame structure, which will be heated by stoves and lighted by electricity...

It is enclosed in the original carved frame of elaborate Gothic design, which is preserved in all its beauty. The picture was discovered in Madrid about 1870, and is signed, beneath the figure of the Angel of the Annunciation on a cartellino, "Maestre ju de Burgos pitor...
