"WILLIAM ROBINSON SMITH was born near Chambersburg, Pa., May 14, 1814 and died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Adam Fulrath, March 1st, 1893, aged 78 years, 9 months, and 17 days. Father Smith was married to Elizabeth Stouffer in the year 1838, who preceded him to the better world November 23rd, 1884. He emigrated to the state of Illinois and settled in Carroll County in the year 1855 where he remained about nine years, when he removed to Jones Co., Iowa, remaining about five years and then returning to Carroll County where he spent the rest of his life. Father Smith was converted about fifty-four years ago, and joined the United Brethren Church in which he lived a strict conscientious Christian life, adorning his profession by letting his light shine in actions of righteousness. Having Quarterly conference license, he frequently preached, as the Spirit gave utterance, and the people were glad to hear him. In the last two years of his life he became quite a helpless invalid, having lost his hearing, speech and memory, caused by sunstroke and partial paralysis. It was a burden to himself and doubly so to those who attended him. But a dutiful daughter and son-in-law kindly and patiently cared for and nursed this aged father. Surely they will have their reward! One son died in the defense of his country; and four daughters and one son, with a number of grandchildren, are left to mourn his departure. But in the sweet by and by if faithful, they will all meet on that beautifuf shore. A large concourse of people listened to a sermon from Rev. 14:13 by Rev. E.T. Smith, assisted by the writer John J. Margileth."¹
