Lewis Knighten was born on Oc tober 23, 1880, near Dayton, Wash., the son of Isaac and Rebecca Kni ghten. Five years later they came to Oregon and to this county. On July 5, 1903 he and Retta Ashbaugh were married, and in 1917 they moved to the ranch south of Hardman where they lived until October, 1937, when Mr. Knighton's health, caused them to move to Hardman, as he had suffered a stroke some time before. Surviving relatives are his widow, Retta Knighten, their only son, Neal, and two grandchildren, Fred and LaDelle, all of whom live in Hard man. There are also two brothers, Fred Knighten of Vale and Edgar of Monument; and a sister, Mrs. Alice Warren of .Benton City, Wash., as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins. The funeral was held on Friday at the Hardman church which was unable to accommodate the large number of friends and relatives who came. The Rev. Martin Clark of Heppner assisted by the Rev. E. L. Ely of Hardman, conducted the services. Two songs, "One Sweetly Solemn Thought" and "Going Down the Valley" were sung by J. O. and F. W. Turner, 0. G. Crawford and F. C. Alfred, accompanied at piano by Mrs. J. O. Turner. Pallbearers were Floyd Adams, Sabin Hastings, Ken neth Batty, J. E. Craber, John Has tings and Jim Burnside. Out-of-town friends and ' relatives who at tended the funeral were Fred Kni ghten and daughter Viola Pruitt and granddaughter Glenna, all of Vale; Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Knighten and Mr. and Mrs. Willis Cason of Con don; Mrs. Herbert Imil and son, Herbert, Jr., of Oregon City; Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Ashbaugh and Tom Miles of Bly; Mrs. Golda Lea thers of Portland; Mr. and Mrs. Frank Glasscock of La Grande; Mr. and Mrs. Clair Ashbaugh and Gar net Ashbaugh, and Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Redding of Heppner. Mr. Knighten was the quiet, high ly respected type of citizen, liked by the children as well as adults. His death emphasized how well he was esteemed by all. The whole community extends its sympathy to Mrs. Knighten, to Neal, and to the other relatives. Mr. and Mrs. Morris McKitrick, their two children, and Mrs. Mc Kitrick's mother, Mrs. King of Dick erson, N. D., arrived last week from Bellview, Idaho, where the Mc Kitricks live. After a visit at the Duff McKitrick home, they left the children here, and went on to Yak ima, Wash. They returned here ear ly in the week and after a few days returned to Idaho. Morris and Duff McKitrick are brothers. On the sick list this week is little Joan Adams. Mrs. Sam McDaniel is feeling much better. Mrs. Mar vin Brannon, however, who went to Portland about a month ago for medical attention, is still ill and un der the doctor's care.
