Sir: In the Daily Mail report of the inquest on the sad death of the lady who was drowned in the Hampstead Heath pond, one of the witnesses gave as a reason why he did not enter the water that he was hot. May I point out that it is quite a mistake to think you should not enter the water when warm; as a matter of fact, the opposite is the truth.
