Richmond newspaper editors reportedly exchange pistol shots in the halls of the Virginia State Capitol

Three of Richmond's newspapermen,  Henry R. Pollard of the Examiner and Nat Tyler and William D. Coleman of the Enquirer, arguing over an article in Pollard's paper, reportedly exchanged pistols shots in the halls of the Virginia State Capitol.  No-one was hit, except for a statue of George Washington caught in the crossfire, and all participants were arrested and held by the Virginia Capitol's sergeant-at-arms.  (By John Osborne)
