MAN DIES IN SAW ACCIDENT - T. B. CAMBRON FATALLY HURT SATURDAY UPON FALLING INTO MOVING BLADE - BOYS WITNESS TRAGEDY - THOMAS BERTRAND CAMBRON, 31-year-old farmer of the county was killed almost instantly Saturday morning between 10:30 and 11 o'clock when he accidently fell into the blade of a small power-driven cut-off saw, which he was operating on his farm about a mile from Loretto on the Bardstown Highway. Two youths, Damon and Thomas Davis, who had been helping him with his work, witnessed the tragedy. According to information obtained here, Mr. Cambron was using the power saw to cut stove wood, which for some time he had offered for sale to the public. He was said to have attempted to break off a protruding limb from a piece of timber being fed into the blade, when the projection snapped unexpectedly and threw him off balance. Falling into the saw, his body was badly mangled. - Asks For Aid. - The young Davis boys are reported to have said that Mr. Cambron was still alive when he was thrown clear of the machine and that he was able to draw himself up into a sitting position and to tell them to go to the house, a considerable distance away, to get help. A few seconds later, however, when one of the youths looked back, he had slumped to the ground. He was dead by the time his wife and several neighbors arrived at the scene. Coroner Owen Deering, who was summoned to the Mattingly Funeral Home after the body was taken there, pronounced death due to accidental causes. He stated that Mr. Cambron's left arm and leg were almost severed and that his right leg was also badly injured. His face and head apparently escaped the saw blade and were not marred. The coroner believes that he bled to death. Mr. Cambron was born in the Loretto community on November 15, 1913, a son of the late Thurman and Lillie Brady Cambron, and had spent his life there, where he was held in high regard. His mother died in March, 1929, and his father on July 8, 1934. Following the latter's passing, he made a home for his younger brothers and sisters as long as they resided in this county. On November 14, 1941, he was united in marriage to Miss Marguerite Cambron and the couple have one son, Thomas Daniel Cambron, 13 months old. Besides his wife and baby, he is survived by two sisters, Mrs. T. A. Blandford of Louisville and Miss Mayola Cambron of Los Angeles, Calif., and three brothers, Joseph Cambron of Loretto; Seaman Raphael Cambron, U. S. Navy, stationed at San Diego, Calif.; and PFC Nolan Cambron, with the Army in France. Funeral services were conducted at St. Francis of Assisi Church Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock by the Rev. J. J. Fitzgibbon, and burial was in the church cemetery (Should be St. Charles Cemetery, St. Mary, Ky.)
