It was my uncle

In reply to Keith Whitfield's letter (Peninsula News, March 5) I wish to inform the readers that it was in fact my uncle that was taken by a shark on Christmas Eve of that year.

This was witnessed by the late Sid Williams of Paton St.

Sid, who was a friend of the family, told us that my uncle, whose name was Roy Inman, jumped off the end of the wharf into two feet of water to be taken by the shark, never to be seen again.
