Rash was called to State Road on Mon lay of last week to investigate the death of Millard Walker Smith, age 4 5, who died at the home of John Kennedy there, .^fter hearing the evidence the coro ner’s jury rendered a verdict of “death by acute alcoholism.’’ According to evidence present ed. Smith, who had been making his home at State Road, visited the Kennedy home Sunday night. According to the Kennedys he spent the night, arising about three o’clock Monday morning. It was said he built a fire and sat down in a chair where he remained until about six o’clock when he suddenly pitched for ward into the floor. Members of the family were said to have picked him up and placed him upon a bed. They said he appeared to be sleeping, and that they left him and went to the barn to milk. It was upon returning from the barn that they found Smith to be dead. The coroner’s jury was empan eled when it was suggested the dead man might have been drinking poison whisky, and Dr. Hugh Parks. Bllkin physician, was called in to make an exami nation. However, due to the fact that no autopsy was held, it was found impossible lo determine if this was the case. It was said Smith had been drinking prior to his death. I^uneral services for the de ceased were held Tuesday after noon from the State Road Bap tist church in charge of Rev. Grant Cothren.
