One who knows him intimately has the following to say of him : "I have known Mr. Smith from boyhood, and in varied relations to myself, both personal and official. I consider him a Christian gentleman of high standing in all which that im- plies. He is a man in whom you can trust and not be disap- pointed ; he is one of whom you can say much and never regret having said it. As a teacher of the deaf he ranks among the highest and his work already speaks for itself. ' A. R. SPEAR. Mr. Spear was b...orn in the Province of Quebec, Canada, in 1860, and removed with his parents to a farm in Iowa in 1869; thence to Minneapolis in 1870. In 1871 Mr. Spear became deaf from an attack of spinal meningitis, and three years later entered the Minnesota School for the Deaf at Faribault, where he graduated in 1878. He worked at the tailoring trade for a while in Minneapolis and St. Paul and entered Gallaudet col- lege in 1879, where he remained a year. He secured a position in the United States Census Office at Washington, being the first deaf man from Minneapolis to receive an appointment in the department at Washington.
