  • Obituary
    Lance-Corporal Henry M. T. T. Levinge. of the New Zealand Rifle Brigade, who was killed in action on March 17, was a son of Staff-Surgeon H. Levinge of Wairoa, and a nephew of Dr. Levinge of the staff of the Porirua Mental Hospital. He took part in the Somme battle, and came through it with only a scratch on the check from a shrapnel bullet. Deceased was the third member of the Levinge family to give his life in the present war. The first to fall was Sir Richard Levinge, Bart., of Knockdrin Castle, Mullingar, Ireland, which has been the seat of the Levinge family for 200 years. Sir Richard was in the First Life Guards. Another, a Lieutenant in the Imperial Army, was killed eight months ago. Dr. Levinge has received a letter from a comrade of his son's in the Rifle Brigade, expressing the warm sympathy of the corps in his loss.
