Smith, Augustus (Memorial - 1912) 
 

Passed by Chas. G. Bacon Post G.A.R., in memory of Comrad Augustus Smith, who died May 5^th, 1912: 
 

Once again death hath summoned a comrade and the golden gateway to the Eternal City has opened to welcome him to his home.  He has completed his work here on earth, and as his reward received the plaudit "well done" from the Grand Commander.  Therefore, be it resolved that in the death of Comrad Augustus Smith our Post has lost a good and faithful member and his wife and children a kind husband and father.  We, his comrades, extend to his family our sincere sympathy, trusting that time will heal the wounds that death has inflicted. 
 

Resolved further, that a copy of these resolutions be transmitted to his family and that the same be given to the press of the city and spread upon the records of our Post, and that our Charter be draped for thirty days.
