General Order
No. 32.
With profound sorrow this department announces the death of Colonel Harry Rankin Smith, former Commander of the First West Virginia Infantry, at Clarksburg, West Virginia, July 15, 1922.
Colonel Smith was a patriotic citizen, and an enthusiastic National Guardsman, beloved by all those with whom he came in contact, and especially by those he commanded, among whom was our present Governor, Hon. Ephraim F. Morgan. He was a genial and kindly man, frank and sincere and very considerate of the welfare of his subordinates.
Colonel Smith, son of Ashabel G. and Anna Rankin Smith, was born in Uniontown, Pa., February 22, 1870. The family moved to Clarksburg the same year. He was reared in Clarksburg; attended the West Virginia University and was a member of the Cadet Corps. On his return to Clarksburg he helped to organize Com- pany "K," W. V. N. G., served as Sergeant, 2nd Lieutenant, 1st Lieutenant and Captain. In May, 1898, Company "K" was taken into United States' Service for the Spanish American War, as Company "D," 1st W. Va. Volunteers, with Captain Smith in com- mand. At the close of the War the Company returned to Home Station and the National Guard was reorganized with Captain Smith promoted to Major, January 7, 1899; promoted Lieutenant Colonel, January 10, 1901, and filled this assignment until after the death of Colonel, Clarence L. Smith, when he was promoted to Colonel, June 1, 1901, and commanded the regiment until 1912, when, because of ill health, he resigned. His interest in the Na- tional Guard and military affairs never ceased. He attended numer- ous Camps where the regiment was stationed and on the outbreak of the World War entered the Officers' Training Camp at Ft. Ben- jamin Harrison, but the training was too strenuous for his bodily strength and compelled him to return home.
Both the old and new members of the West Virginia National Guard realize that they have lost a true and faithful friend, and join his relatives and friends in mourning their loss.
JOHN H. CHARNOCK, Adjutant General.
