Death claimed another veteran of the Lost Cause when Mr. Hardy Smith
passed away at his home near Gaddys Mill last Friday. Mr. Smith was well advanced
in years having passed the 80th milestone in his journey through life.
The funeral services were held at Gaddys Mill Sunday and interment
was made in the family plot, the services being attended by a large concourse of
people, including members of the American Legion and the surviving veterans of the
community.
Mr. Smith was one of the best citizens of his community and having
always led an upright, honorable life, he was held in high esteem by all who knew him.
Until his health was impaired by the infirmities of age Mr. Smith was a frequent visitor
to Dillon and many of his Dillon friends attended the funeral service.
