brother William Miller, of Lowell, her sister Mrs.H.F. Miner and one grandchild

Ickes officiated with the assistance of Rev. Skentelbury.

The floral offerings were numerous and showed the high esteem in which Mrs.Knapp 
was held by those who knew her. The remains were interred in Lakeside Cemetery.
