R Smith's demise last Monday morn- ing came with startling suddenness as few knew she was even ill. 4 days prior she had been stricken with pneumonia and despite all that medical attention and loving tate could do the vital spark fled at i5 a m.• Monday. Deceased was bora at Newcastle, Ont., and came to Huron County with her parents when a young girl, Being of a studious turn she secured a teacher's certificate and taught successfully for years. Brussels being one of the schools on which she left her impress in the pears long sped 47 years ago she was united in marriage to the late Jno. R. Smith, who pre- deceased her 23 !years, after an active busf9ess life in Brn.sels, during which period Municipal office was included in the honors attained. There was born to the home, 3 sons, (Norman, merchant, Borden, Sask. ; Frauk R., druggist. Brussels, and Artbur, druggist, Edmon- ton, whose sudden death 3 years ago. was so deeply regretted) and 2 dough• ters (Mrs. (Dr ) McRae, Brussels, and Miss Dore,'o£ Bordeu, who has spent the past 6 mouths at borne, giving a daughter's devoted care to the mother.) There are 4 grandchildren, Ruby Smith, Borden, now here ; Norman and Donald Smith, Edmonton, and Donald McRae. Brussels, 2 surviving sisters are Mrs. F C. Wright, Jamestown, and Mrs. (Dr) McKelvey, Toronto, The subject of this notice was elected Trustee of Brussels Public school in 1885, the ISI lady to be chosen to the position in the Province, During the passing years Mrs. Smith retained a wideawake interest in public affairs and perused the daily and weekly papers, magazines and books with a relish not often manifested in people es they grow into the old forks' class. She retalned, t0 a marked degree. ber youthful appearance, never lost her love of flowers and last Fall had prepared, as was her custom, beds for the coming Spring's blooming, which will prove a beautiful illustration of the life immortal of the dear one to the family circle. Her home held a large plane in ber life and few knew better how to care for the snug Cottage where she and her son resided, Of a quiet and somewhat tesetved type she lived out her years with a coofident trust in the Giver of all Gooti and was a' faithful member of the Presbyterian church, whose seat was selilom vacant when ber health would permit. The respect of the con/meetly was enjoyed, and the sympathy of a large circle is extended to the bereaved family Pentane will he held Friday afternoon at 2 30 o'clock, service of the home, Albert street, at 2 Norman Smith is expected t0 arrive from the West, probably by Thursdsc. night's ttaib to attend the lastearl rites.
