Advice has been received from Australia that Air Alaurice Redwood, a grand-nephew of Archbishop Redwood, was killed in action on August 5. ’1 he boy (ho was not eighteen years of age) had soon two years’ service, having enlisted shortly after the outbreak of the war.

Cable advieo was received in Dunedin yesterday of the death in action of Lieutenant Frank Bernard Williams.

Before the commencement of the stock sale at Geraldine yesterday Mr Maling delivered a brief address, in which he paid a tribute to the late Captain Harris. It was, ho said, fitting that some reference should be made to one who had been known to many of them as a farmer at Fairlio and at Pleasant Valley, to others, as captain of the Mounted Rifles, and to all who came in contact with him for his sterling character. When in the winter of the previous year Captain Harris doomed it his duty to enlist, though ho was then at the limit of the military age. the call to him was clear, and lie had made a great sacrifice, leaving his wife and young family, his home and his farm. . He proceeded to Trentham, where ho was beloved by the men of his regiment. Thence he 'went to Egypt and on to Fiance. “And now.” said Mr Dialing in conclusion, “he had made the sacrifice and lies in that distant land surrounded by a company of noble heroes. Wo who are left for whom lie truly died can onlj- bare our heads in silent sympathy with his widow and family and in memory of a very ga-Uant New Zealand officer and a gentleman.
