Ben Lamfers, (69, died Friday night after the car which he was driving went off the road 2'½ miles west of Kanawha. The car missed a bridge Lamfers was approaching and came to rest in three feet of water in a big drainage ditch.

The impact caused head fractures and face laceiations and he was partially thrown from the car with his body and head in the water which caused him to drown Coroner Kenneth Boughton reported. Lamfers was following a car driven by Mrs. Peter Eekhoff who lives just west of the bridge. Mr. Eekhoff heard a crash, asked his wife if a car was following her, and then picked up a neighbor, Garland Hull, and they raced to the accident scene.
