Death of
Former Simcoe Girl
Mrs. Levi N. Smith died in
Hillsdale, Michigan, on the 3rd inst. The remains were brought to
Simcoe and interred in the family plot in Oakwood Cemetery.
Mrs. Smith was a native of
Simcoe, her maiden name being Miss Carrie A. Moore. She was the
second daughter of the late Robert Moore, a one-time well known
merchant of Simcoe. She married and went to Michigan to live
something over 30 years ago.
Her aged mother, who lives
here on West Street, an elder sister, Miss Theresa Moore, and a
brother, survive.
In her girlhood she was one
of the town's most attractive belles, charming in person and manner
and popular with her associates. Latterly she was not fortunate in
her health and finally fell a victim to the White Plague. The Simcoe
High School class of 1877-8 grows woefully smaller.
Pallbearers were H. A.
Carter, Geo. Lea, O. A. Hanselman, E. Matthews, H. R. Crabb and W.
A. Skinner.
