The Garden Island, Lihue, Kauai, Tues., 8-15-1916
SAKA
A JAPANESE CUTS THROAT AND DIES.  Sometime Sunday night, Saka, Japanese, employed on

Kekaha ditch, cut his throat with a razor in his cottage near Camp 4, Kekaha ditch,

and died. Deputy Sheriff Crowell was notified early Monday morning, and he and Dr. 
Lyman went to the scene. They found the man dead in the yard just outside the door
of 
the house. Blood on the floor and steps indicated that the cutting had been done 
inside. No reason is known for the deed except that the man was a hard drinker. It
is 
related that he cut his throat once before about five years ago in an attempt to 
commit suicide but was saved by Dr. West. The man lived alone.
