DELIBERATE DAMAGE TO SURGERY
(P.A.) WELLINGTON, October 14. For the second time within a few months. Dr Hughes Steele, of Wellington, has had deliberate damage done at his surgery by visiting servicemen. This occurred last night when a valuable engraved glass panel in the main door of his premises was smashed. Tills panel was the work of an artist and was irreplaceable. Dr Steele was rather severely assaulted by intruders about three months ago, and still suffers from an injury to a hand. Last night, while he was upstairs, two servicemen were seen to approach the door and smash the panel with a bottle and saunter casually down the street.
