Wm. G. Smiser [sic].
William G. Smiser [sic], probably the oldest native born son of Monroe county, died at his home northwest of Paris, Tuesday night, his life ending within a quarter of a mile of where it began nearly 90 years ago. In line with Mr. Smiser's [sic] modest disposition, no funeral service was held, the body being buried by brother Masons in Walnut Grove, Thursday morning. Mr. Smiser [sic] was a Deacon in the local Christian Church and an outstanding member of the local Masonic lodge, his loyalty and regular attendance at all the meetings of both organizations having been unequaled by any other members. One daughter, Mrs. Grover Peyton, survives him.
