Fred Smith Dead in Switzerland Inexpressibly sad was ihe news that arrived by cable on Saturday that Pte. Fred Smith, son of Mrs. Adum Smith, Eugenia, had died in Svi itzerland. There were no particulars. Fred was captured by the Oermans at the battle of St. Julien m Auril of 1915, and held a prisoner until last fall, when he was sent to Switzerland. His parents havo been expecting his return home for some time. His letters were always cheerful and his parents had no idea that he was in a serious condition, wtiich makes the blow all the harder to bear. This is the third and last sou that Mr. and Mrs. Smith have lost during the past two years. One was drowned, another was killed in battle and now the only remaining son ima passed away in a foreign land. Surely few pareuta have been called upon to beat such ^rief as has fallen to the lot of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and the entire community mourns with them in their terrible affliction.
