F. Smith of Flovilla, took it everlasting flight to the home beyond, amid the tears and sobs of a kind and loving husband and ten children, the oldest just entering into womanhood. It is seldom that we have been called upon to chronicle a death with much more sadness than this one, as the bereaved husband was, for many years editor and proprietor of the ARGUS and for three years was associated with the writer in the publication of the same. It really seems like a death in our own household. May the blessings of Heaven rest upon the disconsolate husband and children is our prayer. Mrs. Smith was compassionate young woman and her death falls heavily upon a houseful of little ones. Her remains were interred at Sandy Creek church on Thursday afternoon.
