- Francis Savage Smith Obituary - On the afternoon of July 11th at fifteen minutes to five o'clock, Francis Savage Smith, a distinguished Southern Gentlemen, passed over the river and rested under the shade of the trees, with his comrades of Company H. of the Confederate Army. Truly it was the passing of landmark of the old South, for over three-quarters of a century he has lived worthily "loved mercy, and dealt justly in the sight of his fellow-men," on the acres of his father owned by his family since purchased from the Red Men. He never abused his leisure, or his comparative affluence, but lived a life worthy of emulation by his fellow citizens. He was never too busy to stop and advise with, or to settle some difficulty for a neighbor, who appealed to his sound judgment and sterling integrity, or to lend a helping had to a less fortunate individual. Generous even in sharing his enjoyment of sport, for having been an expert shot, and angler from youth, he always kept his wharf and boats, ready for his own, or his friends' enjoyment. He was an indulgent father, a sympathetic neighbor, an ideal host, and a most exemplary citizen. The community, old and young, "black" and "white", mourn the loss of Francis S. Smith and extend to his bereaved family their sympathy. Married in his early youth to Emma LeCato, daughter of Littleton LeCato, he leaves from this marriage four sons: Edwin I., Hugh Gordon, Francis R., and Dr. Harry Smith, and two daughters: Mrs. W.B. Mapp and Mrs. A.J. MacMath, to mourn their loss. He is survived by one sister, Mrs. Susan Fosque, and two brothers, Messrs. Howard and Thomas Smith. The honorary pall bearers were: Thomas Blackstone, Nathaniel H. Wescott, James Hyslop, John Doughty, Dr. John Mapp, Nathaniel Ward, Leonard Mears, H. Gordon Mears, B.T. Gunter, Samuel Nock. The active pall bearers were: Thomas Fosque, G.T. Wescott, James W. Downing, Joseph Ennis, G. Walter Mapp, and Dr. Sidney Kellam. (Source: Accomack News, Onancock, VA, Friday, July 16, 1920)
