SAD FATALITY AT FEILDING.
Privately we hear that a very sad occurrence took place in connection with the volunteer encampment at Feilding. It seems there was a mimic sham fight, or night attack, and that next morning a young fellow named Percy Crawford was found dead in his tent. It is supposed that by some accident a ball cartridge has been served out to one of the volunteers, and that the poor young fellow was killed by it.
