OBITUARY
On Tuesday of last week, we attended the large funeral of Charles D. Smith oldest son of H. E. Smith, of Lowville. Mr. Smith was a young man of promise, of steady habits, and respected by everyone in this vicinity. He fell a victim to that dread and prevalent disease, consumption, at the early age of 23 years. His memory will doubtless be cherished by many of his associates for miles around. Rev. J. A. Prindle, of Denmark, preached the sermon.

C. Davenport Smith Dies Saturday at 69
C. Davenport Smith, native and lifelong resident of Redlands where he directed the Citrus Pest Control, died here Saturday at the age of 69 after a long illness. Funeral services have been arranged for 2 p.m. tomorrow and will be conducted by members of the Redlands Elks lodge at the Emmerson Redlands Chapel. The body will lie in state from 2 o'clock this afternoon until the time of services. Burial will be at Hillside Memorial Park.
Mr. Smith, whose home was at 116 The Terrace, attended the 50-year reunion of his Redlands High School of 1916 last month. The summer before his high school graduation, and again the following year, Mr. Smith worked for the Miami Copper Company in Arizona as an apprentice draftsman. An outstanding student in this field during his high school years, he was to follow this line of work for several years.
Contacted by one of the owners of the Dodge Phelps Mining Company, Mr. Smith accepted a position with the corporation in Bisbee, Ariz. where he remained until the outbreak of World War I when he returned to Redlands to enter military service with five of his local friends. Rejected because of a physical disqualification, he returned by request of the Dodge-Phelps Corporation to his work in Arizona.
In 1919, he enrolled at the University of Redlands where he and another local boy took over management of the campus store which they developed into a successful operation. Three years later, the Oakland-Pontiac automobile in Redlands was available for purchase, and Mr. Smith became the owner, deciding to go into business instead of completing his last year at the university. He operated the agency until 1929 when the depression forced him out of business. For the next three years he was a salesman for Swift and company and a field man for Redlands Heights company until starting with Citrus Pest Control which was to be his major interest for the remainder of his life. Mr. Smith was a long-time member of the Elks Club.
He leaves his wife, Mayme; a daughter, Mrs. Janice Hansen of Santa Rosa; a grandson, Larry Davenport Hansen who was born on his grandfather Smith's birthday last May 22; a brother, Millard F. Smith of Bakersfield, and a sister, Mrs. Gurna Gilbert of El Segundo.
