GEORGE SMITH, one of the enterprising citizens of Otisville, was born in the town of Mt. Hope, February 8, 1835,
being sixth in order of birth in his parents' family. He remained at home until he was sixteen, when he learned
the carpenters' trade. He clerked in a general store at Otisville for a period of two years, when he embarked in
business for himself, forming a partnership with Mr. Dunning. The firm was afterward Reed & Smith. Later Mr.
Smith purchased his partner's interest and continued alone for five years, when he again sold to Mr. Reed a half
interest. Mr. Smith is now living retired. He married Miss Cynthia Green, of Otisville. In politics he is a democrat
and has served the town as supervisor for seventeen years and as town clerk eight years.
