KENTON, June 10 - As the result of an accident at the intersection of Route 30N and Kirby-rd, near Forest, about noon Sunday, a 70 year old Forest resident is dead and a nine year old Scott resident in a critical condition in a Bucyrus hospital.

Kindle was riding in a car operated by Clara M. Butcher, 74, also of Forest, which was south bound in the Kirby-rd. She suffered painful bruises and was removed to the Antonio hospital here.
The other car, eastbound in Route 30N, was operated by Ernest A. Kimmey, 38, father of the injured child. He suffered bruises on the forehead. His wife and two other children were with him. Mrs. Kimmey received a cut facial artery. The two children, Gordon and Lucille, escaped injury.

Kindle was born in Hardin-co on March 14, 1870, and resided on a farm near Forest until a few years ago when he retired and moved to Forest. He was a member of the Eagle Church of the Brethren.
He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Guy Eikenberry, of Ada; Mrs. John Eikenberry, of Dola; four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. His wife died 40 years ago.
