Camp, Matt –
Dr. Matt Camp of Kellerton was instantly killed Sunday afternoon in an auto accident which occurred about four miles north of Kellerton.
Lewis Rominger was driving the car and as they neared a bridge, a horse went in their way. Mr. Rominger turned the ear quickly aside and went off the bridge down a steep embankment of about fifteen feet. Dr. Camp's skull was badly crushed and death was instantaneous. The driver was slightly injured and went to a nearby farmhouse for help. The body was taken to his office. Dr. Camp was about 60 years old, unmarried, and had been a practicing physician in Kellerton for many years.
