Pine Island Newspaper obituary-Jan 10 1907 Mrs. John Smith a brief notice of
whose death at her home in Zumbrota on New Years Day appeared in these colums

leaves 2 children harry who has made his home with his mother and Mrs.
Louis Andrist, of this place and one brother Orrin Anderson of Eagle Bend.
Mrs. Smith and her husband were among the early settlers of the village and
lived here continuously until about 3 years ago when Mrs. Smith purchased the
hotel property at Zumbrota which she has since successfully operated. Perhaps
no more industrious kindhearted or concientious woman ever trod the streets of
Pine Island than Mrs. Smith. Frail of body, but stout of heart, any
disappointments or discouragements which may have fallen to her lot were never
allowed to be apparent in her face or manner. She was always ready with a
smile and a cherry word of encouragement for all corners and for her family
nothing she pssessed was too good.
