SMITH, 2ND VISCOUNT (1868-1928), was born on Aug. 12, 1868, son of William Henry Smith (q.v.). He succeeded to the vis countcy in 1913, on the death of his mother who had been raised to the peerage in 1891. He was educated at Eton and New college, Oxford, and the year after his father's death succeeded him as Conservative M.P. for the Strand division (1891), holding his seat until 191 o. He had many years earlier entered the newspaper dis tributing firm founded by his grandfather, and the removal of the firm's premises to the site occupied by King's College hospital was the occasion for Hambleden's gift to the hospital of the site at Denmark Hill. From 1915-1916 he served in Gallipoli and Egypt as lieutenant-colonel of the Royal 1st Devon Yeomanry. Hamble den is remembered chiefly for his work for the voluntary hospi tals, King's College hospital of which he was chairman at the time of his death, being only one of many which benefited from his interest and generosity. He died on June 16, 1928.
