Pānui Matenga

This officer, whose death from wounds in France on the 3rd December last, has been reported, was the son of Mr. Edward S. Bradbury, of "Rolloven," North Brighton, Christchurch, and at the time of his death, was in his 23rd year. He joined the Christchurch Branch of the State Fire Insurance Office on the 24th July, 1911, and had only been a very short time at the front when he met his death. He is the first officer of the Department to lay down his life in the Great War, and his death, which removes a most promising and popular member of the staff, will be sincerely regretted by all those who were privileged to know him.
