I received a letter, a few days ago, requesting me to announce the death of an old and estimable friend, Mrs. Margaret J. Lawrence, at Cynthiana, Harrison County, this State; on January 14, 1903, in her 75th year. She was the oldest daughter of the late James H. Akin, of this place, and lived near here until about 30 years ago. She was twice married, her first husband being Stephen Mirrick and the second, _____ (this is the way it was in the newspaper) Lawrence. She leaves five children and one brother, J.R. Akin, of McVille, and one sister, Mrs. James H. Williamson, of near Rabbit Hash. She united with the East Bend Baptist church in her girlhood. Her many friends tender the sorrowing children, brother and sister their sympathy.

"UNCLE" TOM SMITH DEAD

The Well Known Auctioneer Died Suddenly Yesterday Morning. Funeral this
afternoon

Captain Tom L. Smith, affectionately known as Uncle Tom Smith died suddenly at his residence on College Heights yesterday morning. He had been confined to his room for some time with la grippe, but there was no thought that he was seriously ill. Yesterday morning he grew suddenly worse and in a short time he passed to his reward. Captain Smith was in his sixty-fourth year and was a native of Tennessee. He has lived in Texas for a number of years and most of that time has been spent in Waco. He was well known in this city and no one ever met him but was his friend. For the past few years he has been an auctioneer and his familiar voice and towering form; his well known cry and his pleasant smile were such as to attract attention everywhere. He was possessed with a ready wit that made him attractive and there was always a ray of sunshine about him that caused all who were near him to enjoy themselves. He was a brave Confederate soldier and was a member of Pat Cleburne camp, U. C. V. of this city. The funeral will take place from the residence on College Heights this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock and all Confederate Veterans in the city are expected to attend the funeral. The family have the sincere sympathy of their friends in their bereavement.
