Advocate of Suffrage
Mr. Smith, who died some years ago, was a prominent Odd Fellow and Mrs. Smith took an equally active part in the Rebekah lodge. They were both charter members of the local Moscow lodges. In addition to her active work with the Rebekah lodge, Mrs. Smith was the first president of the Woman's Relief corps and was one of the most active of western workers for the cause of woman's suffrage.
In the Spanish-American war both her sons were prompt to enlist and one son, Leo Smith, served during the World War in the American air service. Despite her age, Mrs. Smith was one of the most active of Moscow women in the Red Cross. Her time was spent in knitting, numerous socks, sweaters, and preparing comforts for the American soldier.
The Story of American Womanhood
The memory of a well-lived unselfish life remains with her friends and her family. The story of her life is a story of American womanhood. Surviving her are Mrs. Nella Lieuallen of Moscow, Bert Smith of Wallace, and another son, Leo Smith, who is now in Tucson, Ariz., on account of his health; two brothers now living in Indiana, three grandchildren, Rex Smith and Sallie Jane Smith of Wallace, and Jack Lieuallen of Moscow; and one great grandchild, Jack Lieuallen, Jr. For the past 11 years Mrs. Smith has made her home with Mrs. Lieuallen.
