The Garden Island, Lihue, Kauai, Tues., 11-23-1915
FONG, SHU
CHINESE COOK HANGS HIMSELF.  Shu Fong, a Chinese cook of Kapaia, was found last 
night at about six o'clock suspended by the neck from a beam in a shack to the 
rear of the Ihara restaurant where he had hanged himself. He was last seen alive 
at about three o'clock in the kitchen of the restaurant where he was preparing 
some pastry. His employer missed him about two hours later, when a search was 
instituted, resulting in the finding of the dead body. Shu Fong had been on Kauai 
for over 20 years and had worked at the Ihara restaurant for 3 years. Despondence 
is thought to have been the cause of the man's suicidal act. An inquest will be 
held today.
