w A S A PiONEER
A Resident Of ottumwa for More Than
Half q Century Had Long
Business Career An
Invalid.

When the grim reaper summoned
George Washington Smith at $40 p.
m, yesterday. Ottumwa was bereflt
OF one of its pioneers, man who saw
the city grow from wilderness to its
present size. Over fifty years of his
useful life was passed as a resident OF
Ottumwa whence he came from Brook
vile, Ind, more than half century
ago, in November 1855.
An Active Life.
George Washington Smith was born
at Hamilton, O., November 8, 1880, at
which place he spent part Of his
early life later going to Brookville.
Ind, where he made his home and
grew into manhood. In the fall of
1855 he left overland from Brookville
for the west bringing up at Ottumwa
in November of the same year. Find
ing that Ottumwa, even In those days
offered an inducement for the business
man and settler to locate, he en-
barked in the harness making and
opened shop where he manufactured
harness, until failing health caused
him to give up the business. He then
connected with Crimes carriage fac
tory, an institution long since forgot
ten, as carriage trimmer. Leaving
this business he entered the shop of
Coates brothers, harness establish
ment and continued with them in
various capacities, finally going on the
road as a commercial traveller, using
a wagon and travelling overland until
the firm changed into that of Porter
Bros, and Hackworth He continued
as a representative for the new firm
until about 1889 when he left the road.
Later he engaged in the grocery bus
mess on West Fifth street which place
he continued to operate until 1897
when he retired from active business
life
Wife Precedes Him.
In Brookville, Ind, July 16, 1860 he
was married to Martha Ann Martin
who preceded him in death March "a,
| 1903 The golden wedding of the
venerable couple was celebrated July
Is, 1900. Seven children blessed their
union, two of whom survive, Mrs
Sarah Florence Trotter, 424 West

surroundings and so continued until

this year under most suspicious cir
cumstances, up to noon today 1853 hav'
ing signified their desire to contribute.
While this club is, properly speaking,
a children's organization, still many
grown ups" have always contributed
to its success, thereby making many
little children very happy Christmas
morning. This year the Courier de
sires to do better than before. The
stockings and other gifts brought to
the office are given to the charitable
organizations of the city. which in
turn distribute them among the needy
of the city.
The Courier especially desires TO
know the names of all needy children
and it will be very grateful for all
such information. No child should be
overlooked in the distribution OF gifts
as Christmas is the children's day.
It is hoped that many Of the donors
will bring their stockings in tomorrow
