==Obituary==
John M. Quay, an old resident of Knox, died suddenly Sunday, aged 68 years. His funeral was largely attended from the Reformed church Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Wm. Davis conducting the services. Noah Lodge, F. & A. M., of Altamont conducted the services at the grave. There was also a large attendance from Berne Lodge of Masons. Mr. Quay was also a member of M. H. Barclay Post, G. A. R., and a few comrades from their fast depleting ranks were present. Mr. Quay was the last survivor but one, '''[[Charles Baxter]]''' of Delmar of 22 who went to the front from the village of Knox in the early sixties, of which number only five returned. His passing removes a man of sterling worth, leaving to his children the precious legacy of an upright, conscientious life.<ref>[[Altamont Enterprise|Altamont Enterprise]]</ref>
