MAN ATTEMPTS
TO DROWN SELF
WILLIAM WIcKERS PULLS r.
SALINAS FROM
WATER

William Wickers frustrated an
attempt at suicide BY drowning on
the part Of r. Salinas, Sunday
morning near the foot of Duval
street near the Porter Dock.
Hearing something that sounded
like a school Of fish, Wickers. who
was at work on his ways, turned
and saw what appeared to be d
swirl as though fish were chasing
sardines.
He resumed his work and sud-
denly heard a gasping sound. He
turned and just saw human head
as It was disappearing below the
water.
Running to the spot he saw a
man struggling in the water.
Reaching below the surface he
lifted the man out and pulled him
TO the shore. 1t was then that
he saw a piece Of rope was around
the mans neck and piece Of iron
attached to the end.
The matter was reported to the
police department and the would
be suicide was taken to the city
Jail where it was found that his
name was n. Salinas. whose resi-
dcnce Is on Bahama street. lie
was held in the bastilc until noon
today when he was allowed TO 70
home.
Wickers told The Citizen that
had the water been few inches
deeper Salinas would have drown
ed. AS ii was. the weight on the
rope was light enough to allow his
head TO come above the water
while struggling for breath, but
too heavy to allow him to stay III
the surface.
