Little Pearl Smith, the crippled son of Lambert Smith, died last Saturday at 12:30 o’clock. He had been a crippled for the last four years with rheumatism. This and other diseases were more than he could stand. Pearl was treated by several different doctors and was taken to Martinsville for treatment, but nothing doing any good. He was known far and wide and none knew him but to love him. He was so open, frank and honest, always telling the truth. He never murmured or found fault with his misfortune.
