A. I. Smith, an attorney, who was at one time in partnership with Mr. Butler, was born in Rensselaer Co., N. Y., in 1848, but was brought up at Monroe, Greene Co., Wis. He commenced the study of law at Hampton, Franklin county, this State, with the firm of King & Henry, and was admitted to the bar at Marshalltown in 1878. After coming to Worth county, and making a temporary stop at Kensett, then striving for the county seat, he came to Northwood and entered into law partnership with L. S. Butler, in October, 1879. He was a member of this firm until March, 1881, when he withdrew, going to Allison, Butler county. Here he entered into a new partnership with George M. Craig,, with whom he is doing an extensive business. Source: History of Mitchell and Worth Counties, Iowa, 1884, p.591
