RHODES SMITH, one of the "constituent members" of McConnel's Run church, 
although not a preacher, was, for many years, one of the most valuable 
members of the Elkhorn Association.  He was liberal, intelligent, and of 
great integrity and devout piety.  He was a member of the State Senate 
eighteen consecutive years, and was always a leading member of that 
body.  Near the close of his long and useful life, he selected the 
following words, from which he requested his pastor, James D. Black, to 
preach, at his funeral:  "Unto you, therefore, which believe, he is 
precious."  He died at a ripe old age in October, 1845.
