Lake Odessa Wave, 10 Apr 1951

Horatio S. Knapp, 83, life long resident, passed away at the Veteran’s hospital
at Fort Custer, Saturday morning where he had been a patient for about two
years.  He was a member of the IOOF lodge and is believed to be the last veteran
of this area of the Indian war in which he served nine years.  Mr. Knapp, more
familiarly known as Race, was employed by the railroad and also did carpenter
work in his earlier days.  In later years he spent much of his time fishing
during the season and spent time down town visiting with friends.

Surviving is a sister, Mrs. J.A. Quintal of Alma; three step-children, Arthur
Thomas of Lake Odessa, Mrs. Ina Halladay of Pritchard, Ala., and Mrs. Basil
Peterson of Eaton Rapids.  Mrs. Knapp passed away in November 1944.

Funeral services were held Tuesday at 2 p.m. at the Pickens chapel with burial
in Lakeside cemetery.  Rev. A.J. Pitman officiated.
