He was connected for a short time with the editorial department of Houghton Mifflin Company and with the staff of L. C. Page and Company as literary adviser. In 1900 he accepted a similar position with Dana Estes and Company where he remained until his death in September, 1905. Mr. Knowles was the author of two volumes of verse: “On Life’s Stairway”, 1900, and “Love Triumphant”, 1904. In addition to his own work in poetry he was the editor of several excellent anthologies, such as “The Golden Treasury of American Lyrics”, 1897; “A Treasury of Humorous Poetry”, 1902; and “A Year-Book of Famous Lyrics”.
