STRUCK BY ENGINE ADELAIDE, Sunday. Joseph Fairbrother, aged 42, single, of Blackwood, was killed near Blackwood Station on Saturday night. His body was found on the railway track in a mutilated condition at 9 o'clock in the evening. As it was his custom to take a short cut to the house where he was boarding, it is thought likely that while doing so he was struck by an engine.

LATE PRIVATE CHARLES FERGUSON.
The sad intelligence of the death of Pte. Charles Ferguson, second soil of Mr. and Mrs. J.R. Ferguson, of 'Tiverton'. Castle street, Parkside South, was received on Thursday. The deceased left Adelaide with the 9th Reinforcements of the 46th Battalion. A.I.F. on February 10 of the present year, and after undergoing three months training at Salisbury Plains, proceeded to the front. He arrived in France on September 10, and was killed in action on October 12, having been in the fighting line merely a month. Pte. Ferguson, who was only 21 years of age, had been for many years in the service of the Commercial Union Assurance Company and showed promise of a fine career. For a long time he was connected with the Flinders Street Baptist Church and Sundiy School, and subsequently joined the Stow Church Choir, in which he became distinguished for his vocal abilities. He had a natural gift for music, and was abilliant pianist. Educated at the Adelaide High School, he earned distinction as a scholar, and achieved considerable Honour, as a student in literature. His actions were always marked by a kindly and gentle manly disposition, which attracted a large circle of friends. Cultured and refined, he, while let on the brink of manhood loyally responded to the need of the nation, and joined up with the stalwarts of the King. He did not wait for the summons 'Come' but went, and now a life so rich with promise has been nobly given in the sacred name of right. The deepest repret will be felt for the family consisting: of Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson, Mr. Sydney Ferguson (of the Colonial Mutual Fire Insurance Company), a brother of the deceased and his sisters, Mrs. C. H. Wood (whose husband is on active service), and Miss A. Ferguson. The father of the late private has for many years been widely known and esteemed in business cirles as surveyor to the Fire Underwriters Association of South Australia.
