The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any dispute arise between two or more bidders, the auctioneer shall either decide the same or put up for re-sale the lot so in dispute. 3. Payment shall be made of all or such part of the purchase money as may be required, and the names and addresses of the pur- chasers shall be given immediately on the sale of every lot, in default of which the lot so purchased shall be immediately put up again and re-sold. Payment of that part of the purchase money not made at the time of sale shall be made within ten days thereafter, in default of which the undersigned may either continue to hold the lots at the risk of the purchaser and take such action as may be necessary for the enforcement of the sale, or may at public or private sale, and without other than this notice, re-sell the lots for the benefit of such -.purchaser, and the deficiency (if any) arising from such re-sale shall be a charge against such purchaser. 4, Delivery of any purchase will be made only upon SATE of the total amount due for all purchases at the sale. Deliveries will be made on sales days between the hours of 9 A. M. and I P. M., and on other days—except holidays—between the hours of 9 A. M. and 5 P.M.

Delivery may be made, at the discretion of the Association, of any purchase during the session of the sale at which it was sold. 5, Shipping, boxing or wrapping of purchases is a business in which the Association is in no wise engaged, and will not be performed by the Association for purchasers. The Association will, however, afford to purchasers every facility for employing at current and reasonable rates carriers and packers; doing so, however, without any assumption of responsibility on its part for the acts and charges of the parties engaged for such service. 6. Storage of any purchase shall be at the sole risk of the pur- chaser.

Guarantee is not made either by the owner or the Association of the correctness of the description, genuineness or authenticity of any lot, and no sale will be set aside on account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing, or any imperfection not noted. Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior to its sale, after which it is sold “‘as is” and without recourse. The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot cor- rectly, and will give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy expert to the effect that any lot has been incorrectly catalogued, and, in its judgment, may either sell the lot as catalogued or make mention of the opinion of such expert, who thereby would become responsible for such damage as might result were his opinion without proper foundation. SPECIAL NOTICE. Buying or bidding by the Association for responsible parties on orders transmitted to it by mail, telegraph or telephone, will be faith- fully attended to without charge or commission. Any purchase so made will be subject to the above Conditions of Sale, which cannot in any manner be modified.

Orders for execution by the Association should be written and given with such plainness as to leave no room for misunderstanding. Not only should the lot number be given, but also the title, and bids should be stated to be so much for the lot, and when the lot consists of one or more volumes of books or objects of art, the bid per volume or piece should also be stated. If the one transmitting the order is unknown to the Association, a deposit should be sent or reference sub- mitted. Shipping directions should also be given.

The wall, which is known as “The Wailing Place,” is of huge blocks of stone, creamy gray, streaked and mottled with brown, purple, yellow, pink, white, blue and the tones of iron-rust, and bunches of grass spring from its crevices. Its lower courses date from the time of David and Solomon; some above are attributed to Herod. It is the custom of the Jews to come here and bewail their woes, and to pray, and bathe the sacred stones with their tears. In front of an in-set short pillar we see an aged solitary Jew who has paused to pray alone. He is standing, facing the left and seen in profile. He - is red-bearded, and clothed in long cloaks of yellowish olive- green and gray-blue, and wears a tall black hat. He holds his book open and is looking up at the pillar, and beside him are his staff and bundle. | Signed at the lower right, J. L. GtRome. From the A.
