The announcement of the sudden
death from apoplexy of Colonel VIII
liam c. Smith. of the First Tennessee
Regiment. while leading his command
on the firing line In the battle at Ma
Mia Sunday last, will occasion profound
regret among his friends. particularly
in his native state. Virginia, and his
adopted state. Tennessee. Colonel
Smith was born in Petersburg. Va. and
was Il son who did honor to the Cock
ade City. He was Il Confederate SOL
der of approved courage. lie was nc
vereiy wounded at the Battle of the
Wilderness. and Was color bearer at the
battle OF the Crater and while the flag
staff was cut in several places the col
ors never went down. After the war
Colonel Smith won fame as an nrch-
tect at Nashville. The Vanderbilt
University and many other fine build
ings were designed by him. When the
war with Spain began he was made
colonel of the First Tennessee Regl-
ment by Governor Taylor in recognition
OF his ability and courage. and before
the regiment sailed from San Francis
co for Manila 1t had attained an cx-
cellent condition of proficiency.
