The property was withdrawn. The Waipawa correspondent of the Hawke's Bay Herald states that a man named Price, one of the 123 heroes who survived the re nowned and desperate “ Charge of the Six Hundred ” died in the hospital there last week. The deceased, who was rather an old man, arrived in Waipawa in a pitiable condi tion, having tramped from Hastings about a fortnight ago, and he was at once sent to the Waipukurau hospital, where he died.
