MRS F. P. KNAPP.

The subject of this memorial was the eldest daughter of Benjamin and Julia (Cornelius) Haynes, of Yonkers. N. Y. She was born on October 8, 1865, in Yonkers, N. Y., and died at Chatham, N. Y., Thursday, May IA, 1908. At the time of her birth her father was contractor, and her early life was spent at the old home, where nature gave her the unalloyed health that followed her almost to her grave. She was the picture of health. No
 one, not even her husband, supposed her health was in the least impaired,
 until few hours before she was called
 home by the loving Father of all. In
 1884, her father having failed in
 health, came to New Preston with his
 wife and two daughters, Lizzie and
 Louise. Un October IA, 1891 Finley P.
 Knapp of Warren claimed her as his bride, bringing her to his old Connec- ticut home, where they proceeded to make home and where she resided until two years ago. In September last Mrs Knapp lost little daughter, Dorothy, who died with meningitis,
 which was a blow from which Mrs Knapp never fully rec overed. Mrs Knapp also lost her mother few years ago. Mrs Benjamin J. Haynes of New Preston. The funeral was held at her sisters home. Mrs W. B. Johnson, of Cornwall Bridge, May 16, at Il a. m.,
 Rev MT Pickett pastor of the Warren Congregational church, of which Mrs Knapp was a. member, offered a fer vent prayer. At the close the friends were allowed one last look at the face now gone forever. Then the process sion formed and the remains were borne to Warren and away from us for ever and laid at rest in the new cem- etery. At the grave a beautiful song was sung by the choir. Mrs Knapp leaves her husband. F. P. Knapp, and son, Benjamin A. Knapp; her father, Benjamin J. Haynes. of New Preston; and one sister, Mrs W. Johnson, of Cornwall Bridge, F. P. Knapp's moth- CT, having returned few months since from Los Angeles, Cal, where she has lived for the past Il years, has gone to Chatham, N. r., to keep house for her son and grandson and cheer their lore Illness. It would seem Mir Knapp has had his share of sorrow having lost brother in the San Francisco horror, later little Dorothy and only six and one half months after his wife. Their many friends sincerely sympathize with the bereaved ones in their afflictions and with that Great Kind Shepherd. dear one, we leave thee as thou dost go to dwell in the House of the Lord forever. ~
