Patrick Henry's
Portrait Torn in
| Virginia Capitol
By the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. GA
large. jagged cash was discovered
yesterday across the portrait Of
Patrick Henry, which hangs Just
outside the entrance to the Gov
errors Office in the Capitol.
The prevailing eheory held the
damage was caused accidentally by
long piece of lumber being carried
by workmen up to the Capitol attic.
This theory was supported by
discovery of a lesser dent and tear
in another portrait, which hangs
on a stairway landing between the
main floor and the Office of the
Speaker of the House.
In the absence of David V. Chap
man, director of grounds and build
ings, an assistant said he had no
figures on the value of the portrait.
