Death Of Capt. Stith. Capt. Frank Stith, for nearly twenty years past well known in the patent business circles of this city, died last night at his residence on Grant Place. Capt. Stith is of the old Virginia family of that name, but was born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee and in the war saw much service in west Tennessee, being an officer on the staff of General Forrest. He had been for years afflicted with rheumatism, which finally involved his heart. Capt. Stith WAS NEVER MARRIED and left no family here, but many friends will be pained to hear of his death.
