HANGS SELF WITH SHEET
Miss Isabelle Biersdorff Commits Suicide at State Hospital
With strips torn from a bed sheet, Miss Isabelle
Biersdorf, patient at the state hospital, hanged herself Thursday afternoon. She was found in her room by attendants about 2 o'clock. She strangled herself in bed.
Miss Biersdorf was born in this city and attended the public schools here. She has been a patient at the hospital for some time, and had previously made three or four unsuccessful attempts to end her life. About three weeks ago she escaped from the hospital and waded into the mill pond near the levee. She was rescued by residents of that neighborhood. She was about 24 years old.
