SUICIDE OF AN OFFICER AT ALDERSHOT.—About
four o'clock yesterday afternoon there WAS • shocking
occurrence in No. 1 Hut, P Lines, South Camp, at
Aldershot. At the time named a report of firearms was
heard in the hut, and on some of the officers and servants
entering it, Lieut. Walter de W. Waller, of the 67th
Regiment, who occupied a portion of it, was found in his
room quite dead, having blown his brains out with a shot
fired from a fowling-piece, which was found by his side.
There are several reasons assigned for the committal of
this suicide, but none that could be relied upon. The
deceased officer was highly respected by the officers and
men of his regiment for his straightforward manner and
gentlemanly bearing. and had only recently passed • rup-
ee/slut examination for promotion to the rank of captain
which he shortly expected to obtain.
