A rather unfortunate accident occurred at the Christchurch Poultry, Pigeon, Canary, and Cat Club’s Annual Show at the King Edward Barracks. Some canaries entered from Dunedin and Oamaru were caged and left in the secretary’s office over night for safety. When the secretary entered the office on Sunday morning, reports the Press, he found five birds had been killed by rats. The birds included a number of prize winners.
