ALBERT SMITH.
Sudden Death from Apoplexy.

The community received a sudden shock yes
terday morning in the news of the sudden
death of Mr.. Albert Smith from apoplexy. Mr..
Smith has been out of health for the past two
years, and this spring he made proposition to
tbs members of the firm with which he was
connected-Snith, Tibbetts & Co.. HARDWARE
to buy him out. He had the feeling that he
would like to buy place in the country, and
that the change from business cares would have
beneficial effect upon his health. His part.
ners accepted the proposition, ard Mr.. Smith
sold out his interest. After he had disposed of
his interest, however, he complained that he
felt lost without something to do, after his ac-
tive business life, and he thought of going into
partnership with Mr.. B. Barnes, Tr, the well.
known insurance agent. This plan fell through,
aud last week Mr.. Smith had about completed
arrangements to 60 into partnership with Mr..
Leonard Jordan in the gentlemen's furnishing
goods business. Up to Saturday night Mr..
Smith appeared as well as usual, land on that
evening spent several hours in Mr.. Jordan's
store.
Yesterday morning when Mr.. and Mrs.
Smith awoke, Mr.. Smith remarked he had
slept better than usual. His wife said she
would go down stairs and see about breakfast,
and would call him when it was ready. Soon
after she returned to call him and found her
husband lying on the floor, with only his shirt
and trousers on, and apparently dead. She
reused her son, who slept in the next room, and
called the neighbors, who lifted him on to the
bed, and summoned Dr. Brooks. 1t was found
that Mr.. Smith had died from sudden attack
of apoplexy.
Mr.. Smith was born in Belgrade, and when
quite young man moved to ST. Adams, where
he went into business with his father. In 1857
he moved to Portland, and became clerk in the
hardware house of FL. Warren Lancey. The
firm afterwards became Haines, Smith & Cook.
After the fire this firm went into Galt's block,
from whence they removed to the building on
Middle street, Mr.. Cook having retired. Six
years ago the firm became Smith, Tibbetts &
20. Mr.. Smith was member of the Common
Council In 1867, and later in 1S77-7S. At the
time of his death he represented ward in the
Board of Aldermen, was a director in the
Blanchard Boiler Co., and Mason. he was
an extremely amiable and sympathetic man,
and besides widow and son, will leave a large
circle of friends to mourn his less. 1t is under
stood Mr.. Smith leaves his family in comforta-
BILE circumstances, and had a life policy for
$4,000.
