Lacy Smiths Christmas Bridge Lights Draw Visitors in 1976

Mossy West Virginia reports that Lacy Smith decorated a swinging bridge over Paint Creek with lights since 196? to fend off boredom after a mine accident. His widow Larabelle Smith continued the display, drawing 4000 visitors from 26 states and four nations last year. About 19000 bulbs are estimated across the home hillside and bridge. Smith died at 58 in 1976 after finishing the display.
