He cleared the large farm, later the home of Joseph Moore, and now (1962) occupied by Owen Davis. The house sill stands and was early 73  a tavern and a stage route stopping place near Danville Corner. He was one of the signers of the petition to the General Court in 1799 for the incor. of Pejepscot (DAnville), ME, He was surveyor of lumber, 1803, Field driver 1804 & 1805, Highway Sureyor 1805, moderator 1806, and Grand Juryman in 1809. In 1810 was elected selectman served a total of six terms 1811, 1812, 1813, 1815, & 1818. He was Town Treasurer in 1822 & 1823. He was also an able militia officer, the 2nd Capt of the Pejepscot Militia Co. He was one of the earliest Free Masons in the area. Pelatiah was raised a Master Mason at Cumberland Lodge, New Gloucester, 4 Mar 1811, and his interest in the lodge won him the office of Junior Deacon in 1816, Worshipful Master in the lodge in 1817-1820. The Press of his activities and the rigorous labor of operating his farm and tavern undermined the Major's health which began to fail late in 1821, and he continued in poor health until, 21 May 1823, when despondent of improvement he hanged himself. Altho Maj Smith was an ardent Jeffersonian Democrat, and Squire Giddinge an ardent Federalist, they each had a warm and friendly feeling for theother, not to say a mutual admiration and respect. On the demise of Major Sith, Squire Giddinge wrote " A more sudden and unexpected shock was never before experienced - there was an expression of sympathy that honor to the feeling of most of the neighbors- for certainly there was never a demise of anyone so much and so generally lamented before - for he was a most useful member of society, and no one in it ever exhibited greater testimony of public spirit, neighborly kindness or general benevolence." Thus passed one of Danville's most respected early settlers.
