wall during Hayes administration.
Two children survive her, Smith Com

years ago. Mrs. Comfy was the daugh-
ter of DR.. S. NJ. Smith, one of the pio-
neers of Columbus, whose statue stands
at the corner Of Broad and High
streets. She was born in that city 5S
years ago and had lived there most of
her life. 1t is a remarkable fact that
she was born, married, raised her chill
dren and died on the same piece OF
ground at the corner of Fourth and
State streets. During the war she was
married to Lieutenant Colonel after
wards, General James NJ. Comfy She
went with him into the south and vas
as close to him as the rules would per-
nit, all through the war. General Com
ly and DR.. Smith owned the Ohio State

Comfy was the editor. Later he was
appointed by President Hayes as MN
lister to Honolulu and remained there a
number of years. He died about fifteen
years ago and since that time Mrs

only Judge of what is important. As L

law west of the Pecos river"
He held coroner's inquest on. a Mex-

near the Pecos river. The jury brought
in verdict of accidental death. The
crowd was dispensing when the Judge
called them back.
There is another matter to attend
