Suicide at Port Melbourne

An inquest held in Victoria on the body of Leslie Norman McWhinney, aged 35 years, found he had shot himself with a pea rifle which he had put in his mouth and pulled the trigger.  He died on April 17, 1941 about 2 a.m. on vacant land at the side of Missions to Seamen, near Princes Pier, Port Melbourne.  

Deposition by his brother, John Alexander McWhinney, Painter of 51 Nicholson Street, Fitzroy.

On the 17th day of April, 1941 at the City Morgue, Melbourne, I identified the body of Leslie Norman McWhinney who late resided at 51 Nicholson Street, Fitzroy and was aged 34 years.  He was by occupation a painter.  Worry was his whole trouble.  He had attempted suicide before after his mother died.  He appeared to get alright after that.

Suicide at Springvale. Arthur Henry McWhinney, 46, married, a resident of Springvale, was found by his wife on Sunday afternoon hanging in an outhouse at the rear of his home in View road. Horrified at the discovery, Mrs McWhinney called to her son, Arthur, aged 20, who ran to the shed and cut the body down. Life was extinct.

Mrs McWhinnev has informed the police that she last saw deceased alive about 2.30 p.m on Sunday. He had been addicted to drink for the past two years, and had frequently threatened to take his life. His recent despondency is attributed by his widow to the death of their two daughters

At a magisterial inquiry held at Springvale on Monday, a verdict of suicide was returned

Prior to taking up his residence at Springvale, deceased carried on business as a produce merchant in Clarendon street, South Melbourne
