OBITUARY<br>
William Allen<br>
William Allen, a lifelong resident of the town of Knox, passed peacefully away Dec. 17, 1917. He was the son
of Sylvester and Sarah Allen and at their deaths he became the occupant of the borne place, taking as his companion Edith Ostrander, to whom he was married in 1885.

He was interested in any movement that made for the betterment of his community and did what he could to
make life worth while. In order that his influence might be of the positive kind, he identified himself with the Knox Methodist Episcopal church in 1887, and has been a consistent member. He was looked upon as one of the leaders of Methodism, and the church feels that in his departure a pillar has been broken down.

He leaves to mourn his departure his wife, and four sisters, Mrs. Snider of Gallupville, Mrs. '''[[Van Benscoten, Jacob|Van Benscoten]]''' of Altamont; Mrs. Williams of Knox and Mrs. Armstrong of Albany. Besides
these, he leaves a host of nephews and nieces and a large company of friends. He will be missed in the life of the community, his place will be hard to fill in the life of the church, and in the home there is but One who can take his place, and to that One who is a Friend who sticketh closer than a brother, and who never takes His departure, we commit her, who was a companion and helpmeet, toiled and struggled along life's path at his side.
