The placid life of the little Hert- foidshlre town was considerably ruffled by the arrival of Paul Brereton. although in spite of the enthusiasm of the local painters,

very little was known hout. him. Herbafs word was law as is: as things artistic in Chcriton were

concerned, and since he had said that Poul Brereton was a great artist .such was heurefotwvard his SlfllllS.

Breretou, however, was not, in he general sense of the ivortl. a famous artist; the ordinary reader of the ordinary paper had probab- ly never heard of him. But among painters themselves he was recog- nized as s master. and the few of his pictures which had come Ull- der the hammer had achieved prices very nearly a record for a living: artist. There were those who said that if it had not been for his money he would have been one of the best known o! contemporary painters.

His fia-ther had been in oil, in the days when fortunes were far more easily made in that commod- ity than they are today. In 1914 Paul joined the Army as an obvious way out of the great business which had absorbed his father and threat- ened to absorb him.

He never attempted to sell a pic- ture, but if a, visitor admired his workuntelligently the picture, un- less it happened to be one that Brereton particularly liked. would be _given to him.
