Friday was about as disagreeable a day
as could well be imagined. The rain fell
steadily and seemed to come from all
quarters at once. But that did not deter
large number of persons from attending
the sale of the effects in the mansion at
Smithville.
The sale was advertised for one O'Clock,
but before IL the people were coming in
crowds. They went on the cars, in wagons
and on foot The majority were drawn
through curiosity, and they gave it full
swing, examining every nook in the prop
erty. There were some who would have
been pleased to purchase, but the chance
was not secured.
1t is little over ten years since HI. B.
Smith died. For nearly halt of that time
the mansion has been closed and but little
attention has been paid to its contents.
The sale began on the farm opposite the
residence. There were farm wagons, ma.
chimes and old iron. 1t was sold to the H.
B. Smith Machine Company. Then the
crowd went to the yard attached to the
mansion. The two-seated phaeton in
which the deceased used to ride was sold
to Judson Gaskill, the carriage builder,
for $6. The large carriage in which
Agnes used to come to town, and for
which Hezekiah paid $1,000, was started
at $25. 1t did not get any higher. The
Company bought 1t on their own bid.
They also purchased the billiard tables
and the contents of the club room where
so many were royalty entertained during
the life of the owner.
There were at least five hundred peo.
pie on the grounds and the house was full
so that when the household furniture was
reached it was impossible for many who
desired to buy to leave the spot where they
first settled. The cluster diamond pin
said to be worth $3.50, was cried off tc
Ju dge Gasklll for $18.
