Omer T. Kendall, a printer in the employ of the John P. Morton Company,
dropped dead at noon today while setting time.
Mr. Kendall was born 66 years ago at Salem, Ind. He served in the Civil War
in the 13th Indiana Volunteers as a federal soldier. After the war he moved
to Owensboro, Ky., and founded the Owensboro Examiner, the first paper
published at that place. Three years ago he came to Louisville and accepted
a position with the John P. Morton Company. He is survived by a widow, who
was Miss Lucy Calvin of Owensboro, and three children-Mrs. P. A. Evans, Miss
Fay Kendall and Omer C. Kendall.
