Mrs. Mart Gresham, living near the chapel, mourns the loss of her mother, Mrs. Smith, who with her husband and one son, lived east of Blair Chapel. Mr. and Mrs. Smith had gone to Minnesota to visit another of their married daughters and while there Mrs. Smith died very suddenly from heart trouble, as she had been a sufferer from that disease for some time. The remains were brought home and the funeral held at the Blair Chapel, interment being made in the cemetery near the church and her old home.
