LAID AT REST.

Funeral of Dr. '. HI. Smith-Sketch of
 His Career-The Funeral Services.
 Dr. J. H. Smith, the dentist, entered into rest from his home on Washington avenue, West Haven, November g. at 1 o'clock p. m. By his death one of the old est and most successful practitioners in his profession has passed away. He came to this city from Middletown, Conn, in 1857, and his many patrons can testify that from that time to this he neglected no new methods which could add to his efficiency or their comfort. In 1863 he was brought prominently before the pub Hc by his interest in the use of nitrous oxide gas in the extraction of teeth. He was one of the four to organize the State Dental association, was member of the Connecticut Valley and the National Den tai association, and never failed to attend their meetings if possible.
 He was man of fine presence, genial, warm-hearted and generous, never refus- ing his gratuitous services to any who were in need of help and unable to pay for it. Those who knew Dr. Smiths strong, self reliant nature have looked with wonder and admiration upon the Christian heroism he has displayed by his remarkable patience during his last illness. Fifteen months ago he was attacked with angina peotoris, | and since that time he has been struggling with disease, and has been e constant and l most intense sufferer.
 Last August. having given up all hope l of continuing dental practice, he removed 1 to West Haven, thinking that change oi air and more quiet life might lessen pair and prolong his days. The benefit proved but temporary, and during the last month his distress has been so terrible that deatf brought welcome release.
 His funeral was attended yesterday after noon, at 9 o'clock. The Rev. Dr. Newman Smyth oficiated, and spoke with much warmth of his professional and Christian character. The bearers were MT. Wallsc,
 B. Fenn, Hon. N. D. Sperry, MT. Leonard
 Wtnship, MT. Benjamin Jepson, Dr. E. s
 Gaylord, Dr. James McManus, and the in
 torment was in the family lot at EvergreeI cemetery.
 Dr. Smith was born in that part of Mid
 dletown, now Cromwell, Conn, May 21
 1929. He was twice marsied, his first wifi
 being Miss Charlotte A. Spalding of Mid
 dletown. Of the four children of thi
 marriage, two died in early life; but man,
 will recall the death of the other two, Len
 and Ernest, within two, months of on
 another. His second wife, who was Mrs
 H. E. B. Betts, of Litchtield, Conn ant
 her three children, J. Betts, Carolyn W and w BaretOW survive him.
