Mrs. Lucy Smith was born in Buckingham County, Va., and died Feb. 8, 1005

her the burden to bear alone. She was the mother of eight children. One
died in infancy.
and two died after they became men, namely, Rev. C. S. Smith of Kentucky
and Dr. E. T. Smith of Berea. Three sons, two daughters and 12 grand

education. She was a strong advocate of temper-ance and a regular attendant
of the M. E. church after her conversion which was at a watch night meeting

Hanawalt, whom she had spoken with to conduct her funeral. But God saw fit
to call him home just two months before. The funeral was held at her son s,

quartet of singers from Weymouth rendered excellent music of her favorite
songs. The Interment was made in Brunswick.
