GIVES BOND AND is
RELEASED FROM JAIL
Kunkle Says Employees Work.
ing For The State Loaded
Truck OF Lumber

A formal charge Of mansIaughter
was filed against Dwight kunkle, Of
Amity, aged 10, late Thursday after
noon, alleging that he was RESPONSE.
BILE for the death of Oscar Harding, Of
Columbus, killed on the Coshocton
pike, east of Mt. Vernon Wednesday
evening.
The affidavit against kunkle was
sworn to by Sheriff 3. II. LytIe before
Magistrate George s. Harter, who fix:
ed the bond at $4,000.
Shortly after 8 o'clock Thursday ev-
enins, kunkIe was released from the
county Jail after his bond had been
signed by his father, Jay kunkIe, pro.
prietor Of a general store at Amity.
kunkIe will be preliminary arrasin-
ed before Magistrate Harter next Mon
day afternoon, Sept. 10, at 2 o'clock.
When questioned by county Off
cials late Thursday afternoon, Kun
kle still maintained that he did not
know he struck anyone with his truck
on the Coshocton pike. He said he re-
membered passing motorcycle, but
said he felt no impact and did not
know he struck the machine.
Kunkle admitted that he was haul
ing the lumber from Loudonville to
Mt. Vernon. He said that he started
out with the load just as it was given
to him and that he did not change
any of the planks after mounting the
truck. Kunkle maintained to county
officials that the truck was loaded
with lumber by employees of the state
highway department at Loudonville.
County Surveyor VanVoorhis stated
today that Kunkle had been driving
an ambulance Ford truck, which was
sent here by the state highway de-
partment last spring. The truck had
been-in use overseas, it is claimed. 1t
is said this was the truck Kunkle was
driving on the night of the fatal acct
dent.
Kunkle told officials Thursday that
he was 19 years Of age, but officials
this morning were inclined to believe
that the young man is over 21.
Kunkle told Sheriff Lytle late yes
terday afternoon that he would en-
ploy an attorney to defend him, but
up until late last night he had not
decided on his attorney.
At the office of the Knox county
surveyor this morning it was stated
that the lumber which Kunkle was
hauling from Loudonville to Mt. Yer
non consisted of rafters from an old
which the state highway de-
partment had purchased. The lumber
is being transported to Mt. Vernon
where it is to be used in construct
ing garage near the B. & o. station.
The garage is to be the property of,
the state highway department.
