MACMILLAN BUILDING, BOMBAY 309 BOW BAZAAR STREET, CALCUTTA [Illustration: TOWER OF THE COLLEGE CHAPEL, WINCHESTER The graceful pinnacles of ‘Two Wardens Tower,’ as the tower of College Chapel is called, forms a picturesque feature in all views of the southeastern quarter of the city. Originally built by Warden Thurburn in 1488, it was rebuilt in 1863, in memory of two well-known later wardens, Barter, Warden of Winchester, and Williams, Warden of New. The view is taken from near Wharf Bridge.] WINCHESTER PAINTED BY WILFRID BALL, R.E. DESCRIBED BY REV. TELFORD VARLEY, M.A., B.Sc.
