ROBERT C. SMEDES.

An Abbeville Special to the Picayune, Jun 8th, says: "Hon. Robert C. Smedes, 
District Attorney for the 25th Judicial District, died at 5 a. m. to-day 
after a very brief illness. Thus has passed away in the very prime of life 
on of the most popular and leading citizens of this parish. His untimely 
death is universally regretted."

This intelligence will bring sorrow to many a heart in Lafayette parish, 
where "Bob" as he liked to be called by his friends, was also deservedly 
popular. His was a peculiarly frank and generous nature, and his heart 
always went with his hand. He will be sadly missed, and "take him all in 
all, his like we shall seldom see again." Vale! Kind heart; your memory 
shall long be kept green in our souls.
