Old Painting Appears on Church Wall.
Rev. I. d. Gray has communicated
to the Cambridge (Eng) Antiquarian
society particulars of curious pic
ture which has come into view on the
interior wall of Babraham church.
The rural congregation assembled for
worship on Sunday morning were
surprised to see shadowy looking
figure facing them on the north wall,
where no such object had been known
to exist before. 1t would appear that
the picture had been covered by
thin layer of plaster, and that the
damp had caused it to show darkly
through the coioring above. On at
tempting to peel off the plaster 1t was
found that black, red and yellow col
oring came off with it, being only
mixed with water and size. The face
of the figure is In threequarters or
profile, with a beard and curlys hair

of the fifteenth century, and the fig
