• Death*: 23 January 1907; 5216 Central Ave., Los Angeles, Los Angeles Co., California, U.S.A.; "Former Resident Dead. H. R. Smith, Once Prominent Merchant Here, Dies in Los Angeles. Word received in the city by Dr. and Mrs. Kierulff, from Los Angeles, this morning, announces the death in that city of Mr. H. R. Smith, at one time a prominent merchant of this city. Mr. Smith died on Wednesday morning at 6 o'clock at his home, 5216 Central Ave., of apoplexy, with which he was stricken thirteen days before. Dr. Harry A. Smith and Dr. A. M. Smith, the latter city police surgeon, both nephews of the deceased, worked with him night and day, assisted by two other doctors and two trained nurses, but the patient never regained consciousness from the first shock. Mr. Smith was born on a farm near Belleville, Ont., Can., April 3, 1831. He decided in early life to follow a commercial career rather than agricultural, and entered the dry goods business in a small way in Canada. He married and later came to the states, and thirty-four years ago established himself in the ladies furnishings and millinery business in this city, remaining here for sixteen years. When he first entered in business, Mr. Smith occupied the old Armbruster building where A. Psenicka is now located. His stock was a very modest one, but his business grew and after he occupied the building which the Baddie-Ward Music Company occupies. Mrs. Smith sold out here eighteen years ago and went to Los Angeles where he invested in real estate and became very wealthy. Mrs. Smith survives her husband, but the couple never had any children. Aside from a brother, G. A. Smith, former member of the city council of Los Angeles, the deceased is survived by one other near relative, a brother who lives in British Northwest territory. Mrs. Smith was a prominent member of the Masonic fraternity of Los Angeles, and was especially active in Shrine work, being a member of Al Malalkah temple. Mrs. Smith's funeral was held on Friday of last week at 2 p.m.. Interment following in Rosedale Cemetery." from newspapers.com, (accessed through ancestry login credentials - it worked!!)

Former City Councilman is Stricken Suddenly. Was Long in Active Business Here, Once Ran for Mayoralty and was a Straight Republican. Funeral Services to be Conducted Tomorrow Morning. Stricken suddenly with heart trouble, George A. Smith, a pioneer resident of Los Angeles, former City Councilman and at one time a candidate for mayor, died yesterday afternoon at the family home, No. 1521 Fifth avenue. He was 71 years old.
  Mr. Smith suffered a stroke of paralysis about five years ago and had been in failing health since that time. He complained of a slight indisposition on rising yesterday morning, but the attack was not considered serious by his family. He grew rapidly worse, however, the end coming quickly. As a straight Republican, Mr. Smith was elected to the City Council in 1908 and served one term, when he made an unsuccessful race for Mayor against George Alexander. He had been retired from active business about ten years. Mr. Smith was born at Sidney, Ontario, Can., November 26, 1844. He was married at Colburn in the same province, June 11, 1871, to Miss Harriett Merriman. They came to Los Angeles in 1873, from Trenton, Ont., making the last leg of the journey by stage. Mr. Smith began his business career here as a clerk in a small dry goods store on North Main street. A year later he purchased a ranch of 160 acres at Vernon and set it out to orange trees. He entered the real estate business in 1887 under the firm name of Nolan & Smith. He retired from that concern in 1896. Although a lifelong Republican, Mr. Smith took no active part in Los Angeles politics, with the exception of his term in the Council and the promotion of his candidacy for Mayor. He was a Thirty-second Degree Scottish Rite Mason. Besides the widow he leaves a son, Dr. Arthur M. Smith, former police surgeon, and two daughters, Mrs. W. S. Wilson of No. 2214 Fourth avenue and Mrs. A. B. Young of Victorville. The funeral will be conducted tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock at the Bresee chapel. Interment will be made in Rosedale Cemetery."⁶
