HARVEY, Kelso

Source: Veedersburg, Ind June 29, 1933

-- Kelso Harvey, 48 died in Culver Hospital, Crawfordsville at 2 o'clock Thursday morning of injuries received at 10 o'clock Tuesday night when run over by a truck near Jamestown half way between here and Indianapolis.  He was accompanying Freeman Robbins to Indianapolis with a truckload of hogs.  The stock began to crowd and the men decided to stop and look after the hogs.  Before they had entirely stopped, Harvey jumped from it and was thrown to the pavement and dragged some distance, being finally run over by the truck below his waist.  His pelvis was crushed. Robbins took him to Culver Hospital.  The body was brought to the HC Fishero Funeral parlors, here, but no funeral arrangements have been made.  The Harvey family lives on a farm South of Veedersburg. Surviving are the widow and four children, Herman, Lloyd, Orvina and Wandaline, and his mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Harvey.  He was a member of the Modern Woodmen of America. - kbz
