SUDDEN DEATH.
Former Commander of Navy in
Australia.
REAR-ADMIRAL DALGLISH
(Received 12.30 p.m.)
LONDON, December IS
The death occurred suddenly of KearAdmiral Kobin C. Dalglish, G. 8., formerly in command of the Australian Squadron of the Eoyal Navy.
Rear-Admiral Robin C. Dalglisli visited New Zealand with the cruisers Canberra and Australia last year. Arriving in Auckland at 7 a.m. on August 31, the Admiral left immediately for Botorua, where he remained in order to benefit his health,
which, was even then poor, for the whole week of the naval visit, - returning to Auckland only in time for the departure. He was relieved of the command of the Australian Squadron early this year by Rear-Admiral Wilbraham T. P. Ford, an ex-boxer, Rugby player and golfer. He thereupon returned to England.
