The hoyse was packed to its DIED.--At his residence, nearRingwood, on Monday evening, Nov. 17th, 1890, W. SMITH, in the &6th year of h W. Smith's ancestry, it is said that, his grandfather came from England with two other brothers, an<i his father resided in Vermont in its very early set­ tlement. He Was one of a family of 14 children, seven of whom lived to a mature age: and one, Mrs. Harriet Clemens, is still living and was at the funeral. The deceased was born July 12th, 1805, and could remember when a boy but seven years old that in the last war with England, he distinctly heard at his home the booming of cannon in the battle of Plattsburgh, in which his brother John- eon was quite severely wounded. News come that he was killed on the very even­ ing that another brother was to go into the service, which brought great grief to th<? mother and to other members of the family. The subject of this notice was married-to Clarissa Clemens in November, 1824, and there were born to them ten children, four of whom are living: Mrs. A. G. Scott, of Kearney, Neb.; Mrs. Free­ man Whiting, of McHenry, 111.; Mr. J. M. Smith, of Denver, Col., and Mr. P. D. Smith, of Chicago, III. His first visit to this country was in 1839; but returning to his Eastern home he came finally to live here in 1841,settling near Griswold's Lake, and after two years moved to Mc Henry and kept the log tavern where the Riverside House now stands. For sev­ eral years during this time he was poet- master. He afterwards bought the place known as Smith's Corners, where he re­ sided until the time of his death. In 1846 he built the house that was burned thirteen years ago. Twice in his life-time he was burned out of nearly everything that fire could destroy. In 1850 be went to California, and returning in 1851 he shortly lost his wife, and was married a second time to Syntha A. Griswold, of Cambridge, Vt., who survives him. Six children have been born to them, of whom five are living: Mrs. Julia Bishop, of McHenry; Mr. T. H. Smith, Julesburg, Col.; Mr. W. E. Smith, Mr. E. A. Smith, and Mr. J. D. Smith, all of Ringwood.

For a number of years Mr. Smith was engaged in the mercautiie business, making the long, arduous journey to New York twice a year, for quite a number of years, to pur­ chase goods for much of this surrounding country. He was a person of kindly dis­ position, and wherever he went was fa­ miliarly known as "Uncle John." He al­ ways looked on the bright side of life, and had large confidenceinmen. Though generous and hospitable he was of a res­ olute nature. His disease proved at last to be heart failure, and he has gone in the way in which all shall go sooner or later, where there is no blight, and no broken ties of affection. He had firmest, confidence in the continued existence of his being, and always talked rejoicingly of it. Death seemed to him only a change in life, and as forever pointing to some fuller measure of it. He has waited long for the summons that has now called him away from us; and till it seemed his time to go. After a brief service held at the house, bis funeral was attended from the Methodist church at Ringwood, the writer of this preaching the sermon of the occasion, the prayer offered by the Rev. Mr. Nickle. A large eonoourse of sympathizing friends and family ao> quaiutances were drawn together to pay .their last tribute of respect to his mem- wry, and to follow the remains to the ^metery for interment. May each and all be sustained by the reflection that he has set forth in the course that opens into a world of unfading light and glory, whither tip forerunner hath for us en­ tered. H.
