He smoked a quiet pipe, just as he always does, in the morning; took a little nip of good Irish whiskey as an eye opener, just as he has for over eighty years, and after a little stroll down to ti e corner of Catharine street aud back,took his accustomed seat in bis big armchair and nodded the day through. This is bow Mr. Smith passed his one hundred aud third birthday The aged mi u's memory Is not so good as it was many years ago and ho does not remember much about his early career, but he says he was born in the County Tyrone, Ireland, August 1, 1780, aud when he was very young he was transported to Van Diemen's Laud for doing something that displeased the English Government. There were very tew towns in Van Diemen's Laud in those days. Mr. Smith says be has smoked a pipe for eighty-five years aud does not think be would be any older if he never had contracted the habit or drunk. He was 25 years old when Napoleon met death at Waterloo, and was 3 years of sge when the r settle fell after the French revolution. In spite of all bis experiences during the wonderful changes aud discoveries of the early part of the century, Mr Smith continues to be something of a humortat, and says he has been married five times, but his wife, who was attaching aged very much more importance to her bus band's birthday than the old man him self, and celebrating it in more vigorous fashion, said in strong language tb t Mr Smith was mistaken She was his second wife The couple have one sou who lives In Ireland The aged man is too feeble to work now, and bis wife supports him by ..ei needle, but he worked as a laborer until •■even years ago.
