Ionia Sentinel Standard-Tues. Nov. 8, 1921

FUNERAL SATURDAY FOR PIONEER OF HUBBARDSTON
The funeral for Jacob Smith was held from St.John's Catholic Church at Hubbardston 
Saturday morning. Mr. Smith went to Hubbardston in 1871 and during the following
years was married to Miss Hufner, of Westphalia. Mr. Smith then operated a blacksmith shop
here, but, like most blacksmiths, he felt that after shoeing horses for almost 40
years he had earned a rest, so he retired about 10 years ago.

There are six children surviving-Jacob, Joseph and Matt, Mrs. Williams of Portland,
Mrs. Wildes of Grand Rapids and Mrs. Keish of Portland.  Mr. and Mrs. Smith were making
plans to celebrate their golden jubilee next January. For the past three months their
grandson, LaVerne Rogers, Has been residing with them.

Rev. Fr. McCormick officiated at the Requiem mass.
