Maj Campbell’s Father Supports His Son’s Story
William R. Campbell of Lexington testifies before a House committee that Major Bruce R. Campbell’s account of funds from Emma Bergdoll is truthful. He says $500 grew to $6,000 and a $4,500 deposit occurred around the time of the alleged payment, with money routed through racehorseman Milton Young in 1915. He cannot detail the forms of speculation, suspecting no link to track winnings.
