county New York He read law in the
office of the late Hon. John Handley,
and was admitted to the bar of Lu-
zerne county Feb. 23, 1875. He was an
additional law judge of this county
from July /, 1887. to Jan. 2, 1883, having
been appointed by Governor Beaver.
In 1887 he was the Republican nominee
Tor the same position, but as the coun-
~ was then Democratic, he was de-
ieated by Hon. John f. Connolly. Dur
ing the short time that Judge Knapp
was upon the bench he made an ex-
ceilent record. His opinions and
charges to the juries demonstrated
that he has an excellent judicial mind.

they elected him additional law judge

has been just and impartial. His
opinions and charges are terse, able

him charge jury. His diction is the
choicest, his illustrations are practical
and convincing. He is always kind
and courteous to the members OF the
bar. He is of a decisive but sympa-
