Manitowoc Tribune Vol. 17 No. 46 Thursday March 2, 1871 Page 1 Column 6: Died. It is our painful duty to-day to announce the death, on last Tuesday evening, of Seth Smoke, the eldest son of Hon. David Smoke, the Harbor Contractor of our city, at the age of 23 years. The young man was taken sick about three weeks ago in Depere, was brought home under severe attack of inflammation of the lungs and grew worse, in spite of every effort for his benefit, until death released him from his sufferings. Seth was kind hearted and generous; the only enemy he had, was himself; he died resigned to his fate. His deeply afflicted family have our sincere sympathy at their irreparable loss."
