THE SALE OF MR. WINDUS' PICTURES.
To the Editor of "The Times."
Sir: Will you oblige me by correcting an error in your account given this morning of the sale of Mr. Windus' pictures on Saturday,[167] in which the purchase of Mr. Millais's picture "Pot Pourri" is attributed to me? I neither purchased Mr. Millais's picture, nor any other picture at that sale.
I have the honor to be, Sir, your obedient servant,
J. Ruskin.
Denmark Hill, March 28.
