She had come to the Pacific coast from the East in 1887 to learn that an auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic had been started in Seattle three years previously. Mra. Smith, with her husband, a civil war veteran, and her son, had come to live In Bremer ton. In those days no ferry boat traveled between the two Puget Sound cities, Mra, Smith affiliated h the Seattle corps, and made her way twice monthly across the Sound in ® rowboat to attend the corps meeting. Then In 1902 something hap- pened to alter her life. The only son fell I and died, Mra. Smith | lost Interest in all things. She | turned back her corps pin to the organization, She went nowhere. She says now that she almost gave up her church—and church work had been much in the life of Mrs. Smith. Two years later her husband died. The little old lady hid herself away from the world in a cottage in Bremerton, where she continued to live with two grandchildren, Until six years ago she was there, It was because she had not given up her church that Mra, mith kept jin contact with the Rev, and Mra Roland Hughes, whom she had first known at the Methodist Episcopal church In Bremerton. They had later moved to Seattle. Six years ago they brought her to this ity to live with them, while the grand children purswed their way in schoo! and work. Women of the relief corps, thru the Rev. and Mrs, Hughes, heard of Mrs. Smith's residence in Seattle.

Verily, they say, no one more than she should be affiliated with a relief corps, For, years ago, during the days of the civil war, while her husband was on the battlefields, and she remained in a lite New York state town, Mrs. Smith, they tell us, did much rellef work. Many boxes, containing food and clothing for both the men at war and their destitute families, it js said, were packed in Mrs, Smith's home and shipped away.
