Kidney trouble was the cause. Mr. Smith was extensively known throughout Jackson county and Southern Oregon as a man of sterling business qualities. His investments covered a large territory and are reported all in a flourishing condition. Among other tings he had a large saw mill and a general store at Wolf Creek and was interested largely in timber land, also a large store in Grant's Pass and our immense general store in this city of which L. F. Cranfill is the manager. Mr. Cranfill and Dr. Pryce left on Sunday evening for the bedside of the patient but arrived only in time to take part in the last sad rites. The funeral took place Tuesday at Wolf Creek and many sorrowing friends attended the burial.
