Smith, near Fairview, Newton County, MO, March 19, of pneumonia, age 53 years, 7 months, and 10 days. He was born July 21, 1854, in Washington Co., Arkansas, and when a young man came to Barry County with his parents and located in Ash township where they resided a number of years; his father afterwards moving to Newton County. He left a wife and eight children to mourn his death. He was a brother of T. H. B. and Bay Smith of this county. The remains were laid to rest in the Rocky Comfort Cemetery at 4 p. m. March 19th, Rafe enjoyed a good reputation and he had the respect and confidence of all his acquaintances. At one time he lived near Eagle Rock. To the relatives we tender our sympathy. |
