Coming of age in 1821, he inherited some money, and bought a part-proprietorship in a newspaper, ''The Sunday Monitor'', on which Douglas Jerrold worked as a compositor. By the time he was 24 he found himself penniless. William Harvey then instructed him in wood-engraving. He had previously been a pupil of Samuel Williams. In 1842 Smith took into partnership William James Linton. Smith & Linton did much work for the ''Illustrated London News'', and illustrated books, including ''Whist, its History and Practice'', from designs by Kenny Meadows (1843).〔 Smith died of apoplexy on 15 October 1843, at 11 Mabledon Place, Burton Crescent, London.〔
