altho he was often found to relish
the latter in no small degree. Never
was he found t. shirk his duties; it
was a second nature with him not to
let lesson slip by without having
prepared it or to miss the full benefit
of his instructors words. His was a
most cheerful disposition. To look
into his face was looking into a day
of sunshine. He was true optimist,
never allowing anxiety and difficulty
to cloud his sky. His was a Christian
character bearing the blossoms of puri.
ty, nobility and virtue. From the path
of the hallowing precepts of Christ
ianity he never turned away, but with
childlike faith he believed in them and
lived them.
No one should have hesitated to
say that here was splendid material
fer minister of the Gospel But with
David it was otherwise. He looked
upon this holy Office with reverence
and fear, counting himself unworthy
as we'll as unqualified. He could not
enter therein without the full convic
ton of having heard the call. Hence
it became struggle with him to find
out what was the divine will. Like
so many others he had to bide the
time and in prayer seek guidance and
help. Even at the close of his college
career we still find him undecided as
to the question of entering the minis
try. The experiences in church work
during vacations had not been able to
convince him of what his calling was
to be. It was only after serving one
year on the Columbia mission field at
Bellingham and Sedro WOlly that his
doubts vanished and it became clear
to him that the Lord wanted him as
a pastor among His flock. Hence in
the fall of 1911 he entered our theo-
logical seminary at Rock Island and
was graduated from the same in the
spring of 1914, and at the meeting of
the Synod that spring was ordained
to the holy ministry in Sycamore, Ill.
on call to the Sw. Luth. church in
Akron, Iowa.
During vacation time at college he
served in the capacity of teacher and
preacher in various congregations
such as Litchfield, St. Paul, two sum-
mers in Marquette, Mich. and others.
During seminary vacations he supplied
on the mission field in Canada one
sumner and one summer in Lincoln,
Neb. and surrounding places. In con-
nection with the church at Akron, Ia,

the Indian uprising John TAFT was
elected captain of the Diamond Lake
settlers. After peace was restored
on the frontier the Taits returned and
lived their long and useful lives on
their old homesteads. John took a
leading part in the organization and
development of the community.
Mrs. John TAFT passed away on
June 26, 1910. During the last few
years, the daughter Janet and hus.

dress in Swedish. Mr.. Almer sang a
song composed for the occasion by his
father, the Rev. A. F. Almer. Rev. G.
O., Bergquist, of Pennock, a.classmate
of the deceased, sketched the life Of
the departed. We reproduce this trib-
ute herewith in full:
DAVID ALFRED KNOCK.
1t is soon ten years since it was my
privilege to sketch a brief biography
for the year book at Gustavus Adolph-
us college of him whose death we are
mourning today. Little did l then
dream that it was also to be mine
to give the final chronicle CT this life,
and, least of all that it should be so
soon. 1t seems but as yesterday
when we sat together as class mates
in the halls of learning; when he re-
lated to me those little incidents Of
early days; when l wrote that unpre-
tentious story of his life. And yet,
between then and now there lies a
life's work completed; day Of labor
has come to it's close.
David Alfred Knock, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. C. G. Knock, was born on farm
near Gowrie, Iowa on the 22nd of
jan, 1884. Here it was on this beau
tiful Iowa farm that David spent the
innocent days of CHILDHOOD; where he
played as a boy and developed into
youth. But the youth was not to be-
come a farmer. A silent voice was
calling him to other pursuits, to other
spheres Of activity. An early desire
for learning manifested itself in a
deep love for books and longing for
school. Having completed the limited
courses of the rural schools at home
he went to FIT. Dodge where he attend
ed Tobin college for year. In Nov
ember 1902 he first came to Gustavus
Adolphus college, completing the First
class of the academy the following
spring. The next year he was engaged
in public school teaching near his
home, after which we again find him
enrolled as a student at Gustavus
Adolphus college, now to- continue un
til his graduation in 1910.
During the six years that we labored
together as class mates thru academy
and college it became my privilege
to know David as intimately, perhaps
as any one. He was a student in the
full sense of the word. Books and
class room lecture had far more at
traction for him than sport and play

and mind and the faith of freemen in
