Description This fall took place on May 2, 1939, in Fort Bend County, Texas. The event was witnessed by a large number of people and photographs of the smoke trail assisted with the location of the strewnfield. The recovered weight of this fall was only about 6.9 kgs with the main mass going into the collection of Oscar E. Monnig. Kendleton is classified as a L4 regolith breccia and it displays an interesting mixture of clasts and chondrules. This small partial slice has fusion crust along one edge. This piece has circulated through a number of collections including the Marmet collection and Schoolers.
