" The impression is very prevalent that the exhibition to the public of the Bridgewater Collection of Pictures is compulsory, in virtue of some provision in the Will of the late Duke of Bridgewater. I do not know how this delusion originated, but I know that it is of long standing ; and I have had of late so many intimations of its continued exist ence and prevalence, that I consider it necessary to give it a formal contradiction. " The impression in question is in every respect totally unfounded. It is not enough to state that the Duke of Bridgewater's Will contains no direction whatever to the legal effect supposed, no evidence written or traditional has ever reached me of any wish or intention on the part of my illustrious relative that the pictures collected by him should be exhibited to anybody.
