Are you sure that this is from the slave and not another not requesting it? If this log entry has just ERROR, it means that the WAL sender generated it. So don't you have a cascading slave connecting to this new slave and requested for this WAL segment that has already been removed? Should the error come from the WAL receiver, you would have something like that.
