It is for one Kennie Smith of Perry County Kentucky (b 05 May 1904 to Larkin Smith and Eliza Combs) who died 02 Feb 1943. Kennie Smith seems to have died from complications relating to surgery (to remove a bullet lodged near his heart) at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota (he apparently returned home before dying). We're still unsure how or when he was shot, although it seems likely to have been years earlier. He had been in the service in the 1920s, and although there were no foreign conflicts at the time there may have been an accident of some sort. The cause of death seems to be something like "Mayo(?) Car-something...or Cor-something". Anyone have any insights? Best regards, Kenneth
