Ok, I found my person. His name was Jabez Burritt Smith (1852-1914) — also known as J. Burritt Smith — of Wisconsin. Born in Sherburne, Chenango County, N.Y., March 17, 1852. Prohibition candidate for Governor of Wisconsin, 1900. Died in Hammond, St. Croix County, Wis., December 31, 1914. Interment at Forest Hill Cemetery, Madison, Wis.

Still, looking for any additional biographical info on this person.
