Son of Harry (Heinrich) KNAYER and Lena nee TOULE, Roma, Qld.
The death occured at the Roma Hospital on Saturday evening of Mr. Charles Knayer, the youngest son of the late Mr. H. Knayer. Mr. Knayer was a member of a well known family who have been residents of the district for a great many years. About three weeks ago he was admitted to the hospital, and later developed typhod and pneumonia. Deceased was a single man, only 35 years of age, and was of a very robust constitution. The funeral on Sunday was very largely attended by residents of town and district. The sympathy of the community is felt for the bereaved relatives.
