Smith Friday, October 6, was a sad one, she gave her life in giving life to her babe no greater sacrifice could be made. Nellie Bentley was married to Mr. Smith in June 1910, she came here from England about four years ago and has proved to be a most noble woman. The best medical skill and nursing proved unavailing in her case. The babe, Stoel Bentley Smith, still lives. Impressive funeral services were held at Greens Church Sunday, Rev. Maxwell officiating, with many friends and neighbors present. At the cemetery a large number of her English friends sang an appropriate hymn. Mr. Smith wishes to thank all for their help and sympathy in this hour of his great bereavement. He with the motherless little one will reside with his daughter, Mrs. William Hulbert.
