    Dec. 10—William G. Smale, 75, 465
    Seventh street, veteran teamster,
    dies.

    12/11/1939

    Heart Attack Fatal to Longtime
    Employe of Falls Carting
    Company.
    William G. Smale, veteran Niagara
    Falls teamster, died suddenly yesterday
    afternoon of a heart attack
    In the home of his daughter. Mrs.
    Emil R. Boles, with whom he lived.
    He was 75 years old.
    Coming to Niagara Falls from
    Seaforth, Ont., In 1900. Mr. Smale
    obtained employment t l t h the William
    Young Carting company as a
    teamster and had been employed by
    that firm ever since, in late years
    serving as a night watchman at the
    garage and offices in Eighth street.
    Entering the business when trucks
    as a means of transportation were
    unheard of. he often recalled how
    trips to Buffalo and Lockport with
    a wagon were long, tedious jour-
    neys, occupying an entire day, and
    that during the winter months heavy
    snows and low temperatures made
    the trips even more difficult.
    He served many of the important
    Niagara Falls industries when their
    rise was judt beginning and hauled
    much of the heavy machinery
    whcih has played so great a part in
    establishing this city's industrial
    prominence.
    An authority on horses, Mr. Smale
    was given much of the responsibility
    of caring for the more than 100
    kept by the local carting firm in
    the large barns in Sixth street be-
    fore motor trucks began to make
    their presence felt.
    After the complete motorizing of
    Young's equipment, Mr. Smale re-
    mained with the firm as a night
    watchman and yesterday had re-
    turned from work, only a few hours
    before hiis death, in apparently
    good health.
    In spite of the fact that he was
    no longer able to care for horses,
    hemaintained a keen interest in
    them and about a year ago served
    as a judge for a horse show held in
    Chippawa, Ont. When this city's
    first large scale horse show was
    staged in Hyde Park stadium last
    summer, he spent the entire day at
    the scene, talking with owners and
    trainers.
    Reluctant tyo travel in automo-
    biles Mr. Smale experienced a
    thrill only a few years ago when he
    made one step beyond this mode
    of transportation and went up in
    an airplane at the municipal air-
    port, seeing for the first time how
    the city in whci he had lived for
    nearly 40 years looked from the air.
    Born in Ashwater, Devonshire,
    England on December 10, 1865, he
    came to Canada to take up residence
    in Seaforth, Ont., shortly before the
    turn of the century, and lived there
    until he came to this city.
    Surviving, in addition to Mrs.
    Boles, are three sons, Claude A.
    Smale, of Buffalo, and William G.
    Smale, Jr. and Ralph S. Smale, of
    this city. There also are give grand-
    children, Miss geralding Smale, Miss
    Dorothy Smale, Miss Betty Smale,
    robert E. Boles and William A.
    Boles, all of this city.

    o;clock Wednesday afternoon from
    his late home, 465 Seventh street,

    copal church, will officiate.
