SMITH. -- David Smith, at his residence in Sugar Creek township, on Saturday evening at 10-1/2 o'clock, aged 69 years. Funeral Tuesday, Oct. 25, 1881.
The deceased was one of the best known men in the county, and this announcement of his death will surprise many who knew him so long. He was possessed of many good and valuable traits of character which made him a valued friend and a good man. We will mourn his loss and shall miss his presence from our midst as he hardly every failed to come to the city on Saturday and indulge in social conversation with his friends. We extend to the family our sympathy in the great loss they have sustained by his death.
