W. M. KNOTT



W. M. Knott, cashier of the Sabine State Bank, was born in Natchitoches

parish, near old Beulah Camp Ground, February 16, 1879. His father, George,

was a native of Kentucky, came to Louisiana in the early days and was a

successful farmer.  W. M. Knott attended public schools and the Fort Jesup

High School.  He learned telegraphy and for seven years was in the employ of

the K.C.S. and the Rock Island railroads, after which he entered the employ of

the Thompson-Rithchie Co., wholesale grocers, at Ruston, where he remained

three years.  He came to Many in 1909 to become cashier of the Sabine State

Bank, in which position he has made a most creditable record.
