Kokomo, Ind., Jan. 16, --Samuel Peffley (sic), 87, Kokomo, struck by a truck driven by Albert Schwenger, Kokomo baker, early Monday morning, died this afternoon at Good Samaritan hospital. Peffley (sic) has resided here for eight years, operating a shop for sharpening knives, scissors, and doing other odd jobs. Peffley (sic) was pushing a cart in the downtown section when struck. Schwenger told police the headlights on his truck were ineffective because of a light rain on the pavement and that smaller street lights recently installed as an economy measure by the city also prevented his seeing Peffley (sic) until too late. Samuel Peffley (sic) is a former Ladoga resident and well known in that vicinity.
