§ 76. Lord Balnielasked the Minister of Works whether, before reconstructing the plinth of the statue of the "Burghers of Calais" in the Victoria Tower Gardens, he will consider rearranging the figures in processional order, as described by the sculptor.
§ Mr. BirchThe evidence as to the sculptor's wishes is uncertain, but the existing grouping represents his final arrangement of the figures. In the circumstances, I think it best to leave the group as it is.
