CHARLES W. SMITH
It is a kind dispensation of Providence toward men that, as the years go by, the greatest griefs, the keenest sufferings, mentally and physically, gradually lose their bitterness and sorrow, and after a long period of time men may look back upon them with complacency and with precious and hallowed memories.—Charles W. Smith.
