While searching on find my past I came across a news paper article dated Thursday May 19th 1938. The Evening Telegraph. Headline " Boy sees man fall 80 feet to death"
"A message boy saw a man hurtle 80 feet to his death in Duntocher, Dumbartonshire. The victim was Andrew Munn (42) unemployed, 1, New Street Hardgate.
A message boy was walking along the boulevard near to the bridge which crosses Duntocher Burn at the west end of the village saw the man fall from the south parapet to the water, 80 feet below.
The boys cries attracted John Keane, a footballer now with Gateshead, who rushed down the embankment to give assistance. The burn was in spate however, and it was impossible to reach the body.
Policemen recovered the body later Munn had suffered sever head and body injuries. Munn leaves his wife and grown up family"
By reading the whole article I am guessing it was suicide, but would like to find out more.
