Plymouth Veteran Dies From Burns
 
Julius H. Knight Dies In Ontario Hospital Last Friday Night
 
"Steve" Knight, New Plymouth resident, died last Friday night in an Ontario 
hospital as a result of burns sustained earlier that same afternoon.  Members 
of a railroad section crew stated that Knight had poured gasoline on his 
clothing and applied a match.  The crew administered first aid and rushed the 
man to the Oregon hospital where he later died.  Knight had been operating a 
small acreage near New Plymouth and despondency over ill health is given as 
the likely cause of the taking of his life.

who passed away at his New Plymouth home following a long illness, Friday, 
September 4.
