MADE OTHERS HAPPY

Among the many visitors who came

Citizen" Joshua w. Ashley of Ho-
nea Path. He was n great admirer
OF Capt, BILLY" Smith. and the state
Inent he made to some friends yaster-
day illustrated more than anything
else the nature of the gentle and
courtly man and official that Capt.
Smith was.
when was first elected to the leg
islature," said Mr.. Ashley, II wanted
my wife TO visit me In Columbia. She
was not accustomed TO travelling
alone. SO l asked Capt. BILLY" Smith
TO look after her. II she had been the
queen OF England or the wife Of the
president of the United States che
would not have been treated any bet
ter than she was. And he was that
way to all elderly ladies who were
travelling alone"
And there was another side to the
life OF Capt. "Billy" Smith that was
expressed in the pulpit very feelingly
by DR.. Vines. He said that not only
did Capt. Smith carry with him on
i::iij Taa :; ;:aeP sense of responsible
ity to his company and TO his pa
irons. but he also carried his relig-
ion with him every day. He said
that Capt. BILLY" was deeply pious
man and never lost an opportunity to
do something or TO say something 10
