Of the Pioneers of Tampa

and Shriner. He is a member and director of the Cherokee
Club, a member of the Crescent Club, a member of the Centrol
Espanol, a member and judge-advocate for Florida of the Mil-
itary Order of Foreign Wars (by virtue of the fact that his
grandfather, Richard Knight, was a captain in the 14ar of
1812); venerable master of Consistory i o. 1 of Florida, and;
a Son of tne American Revolution.
 Fromn what we have said it will be perceived that Peter
0. Knight is a an of many activities, and that his time is
fully occupied with important concerns. Notwithstanding,
he finds time for the indulgence of the social amcnities
and entertains frequently and with an elegant and liberal
hospitality. It is inevitable that a man of his aggressive-
ness and energy should have made enemies, but while his ene-
mies may be counted upon the fingers of the hands the name
of his friends is legion. There is no man possessed of
gre~ut3r porsonll magn tism and htj is the very .Orsonifica-
tion of geniality and good follo-wship.
 Petor 0. Knight married on the 24th of August, 1386,
Lillie, daughter of Captain T. D. Frierson, of Sumtor, S.C.
They have two sons, Joseph, who is grown, and Peter 0., Jr.,
who is yet quite young.
