OBITUARY..
HENRY SMILE.

Mr.. Smile was a son of Hon.
Nathan and Esther (Green) Smile,
and was born in Cambridge Sept. 9,
1926, where he died Sept. Z, 1898,
at the age of 81 years. He received
his education at the Bakersfield
Academy, under the instruction
of the distinguished teacher, the
Hon. Jacob S. Spaulding. At the
death of his father, in 1862, Mr..
Smile succeeded to the manage
ment of the large landed estate, to
which he has given his time and care
with marked success. He was for
several years one of the directors OF
Lamoille County National Bank, and
has been one of the trusted town Off
GERS for the greater part of his active
life. He was married Jan l, 1851,
to Miss Abbie Strew, who survives
him with their six children Lucia,
Levi, Anna, William, Nathan, of
Cambridge, and George, of Wood
bury. Mr. Smile was an upright and
useful citizen. He had that combina-
ton of qualities which enter into
the makeup of a true man in the
common walks of life-a good mind
and a virtuous heart, united to
firm will power and a benevolent
spirit. 1t is a just testimony to his
character that he was eiDinently fair
and generous in his dealings with all
classes of men, both in public and
private relations. He had his pecu-
liarities of economy in social and
domestic life, but it was his delight
to be right and do right.
He was impulsive and ardent in
disposition, but was forgiving. If
injury excited him to anger, his an
ger could hourly outlive the occasion
OF it, and soon went out of itself.
He has had an honorable and busy
life in our midst, and he has done his
quiet and prudent work before us as
man, citizen, husband and father,
and has fallen asleep surrounded
with the ministratiOns of love, and
his memory is cherished with unfail-
ing esteem and honor.
His funeral was held at his resi-
-dence Saturday, Sept. 9, at ! p. IN.
There were present a large number
of people who highly esteemed their
friend and neighbor, and in whose in
tegrity they had the utmost conf
dence. Hon. Elisha Bentley, Chaun-
cey Warner, of Cambridge; Charles
Sylvester, of st. Johnsbury; Henry
Mcfarland, of Hyde Park, and Mel
vile Smile, of Montpelier; were
among those present.
The bearers were the four sons.
The singing was by Hon. Henry
Cornell, Hon. H. w. Griswold, Ira
Powell, Mrs. III. W. Griswold, and
Mrs. Charlotte Mcfarland, of John
son, Oscar Atwood, of New Orleans,
La, being at the piano. B. G. Ma
coy had charge of the very orderly
arrangements, and Rev. Edwin
Wheelock officiated. The floral offer
ings were fine and expressive of a
tender and affectionate friendship for
the memory of the friendly man.

DR.. Booth and the society, he can be
again secured as pastor and resi-
dent of Morrisville.

are being cultivated the minds which are to
be our future lawmakers and leaders in every
