SKETCH OF MAJOR SMITHS LIFE
 BY HIS FRIENDS
(By His Friends.)


 Mir. Smith was born on December 1S 1927, in Warren county, North Cerolina. As youth he was of a highly imagina- tive and excitabla temperament, which was manifest throughout his long life. While yet youth he discarded his school books and enlisted in Company H, First North Carolina regiment, for service in the Mexican war. After his return from Mexico he enlisted under Col. Albert Sidney Johnston for service against the Mormons Mir. says he was an original secessionist and before the advertisements appeared in the news papers asking for Confederate flag he had an emblem for Confederacy in mind. MT Smith enlisted June 1, 1861, in the Second battalion, North Carolina troops. He went with three companies that were sent to Richmond and remained there two months until August 1, when the battalion was ordered to Washington. He asked for and obtained five days leave of absence and left the battalion for Louisburg for the purpose of placing his mill, which he had recently purchased, in charge of some reliable person. While there in attempting to stop a runaway mule team he was thrown down and had
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-05-16

HT was at Washington, D. C.. on the
 memorable meeting Of the nineteenth A annual convention of the United Daughters of the Confederaey to lay the corner stone of Arlington monument, that I first heard of any other claimant than Nicola Marschal for the honor of hav- ing designed the first flag of the Confed- eracy, known throughout the world as the Stars and Bars.
 It was on opening night in the beau- tiful hall of the Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution that d large silk flag, the Stars and Bars was presented to the convention in the name of Maj. Orrin R. Smith, with the announcement that he was the designer of the first flag of the Confederdcy It came like thunderbolt to me, an Alabamian, who all my life iong had heard that great artist, Nicola Marschall, had designed the Stars and Bars at the request of Mrs Napoleon Locket [ had heard my father and others mention it ever since I could remember
 Turning % friends I announced this fact and was urged by them to chal- lenge the statement. Feeling, however, that on such gala evening, with the President of the United States, Mir. Taft and other officials and distinguished per eonages on the rostrum, and q brilliant Washington audience present, was not the time or place for a correction, 1 awaited the qGiet business sessions. Sew eral Alabama gentlemen who were in knowledge of the flag and thought as Washington the next day confirmed by President of the Alabama division, United Daughters of the Confederacy l would be perfectly right to state my version Of the question Accordingly I did at the business session challenge the Smith claim to this honor, in the most loving way that could remembering the while that my great grandfather King was loyal son of the Tar Heel State. Since that good day at Washington 1 have gone deep into the question. determining for the sake of true history that if my re- search proved 1 was wrong. I would be big enough to acknowledge it. 1 be- lieve- l was the more influenced to this by my sympathy for the daughter of Maj. Orrin R. Smith, who made a pa- thetic appeal to me while trying to prove the honor for her father. Indeed. the question kept recurring to me, Why not let her have the honor for her father? am not personally interested like she is; I do not even know Nicola Marschall nor was I acquainted with the Locketts.' Friends of mine. and also of Miss Smith begged for the sake of what they termed peace that I let the matter rest. They argued that 1 would injure myself, be called a maker of strife IT the. United Daughters of the Confederacy, making enemies unnecessarily if I continued to contend for honors for other people. But I could not see it that way, because the more I investigated the question the more I believed the Smith claim to be untrue history.
