His health became impaired in 1939 when he suffered a paralytic stroke from which he only partially recovered. Mr. Smith was the fifth of his family, in direct descent, engaged in law practice. Col. Benjamin H. Smith, his grandfather, was one of the prominent lawyers of his generation and his father, Isaac Noyes Smith, as a senior member of the firm of Smith and Knight, until his death in 1882, was one of the most distinguished lawyers in West Virginia. Harrison Brooks Smith was born in Charleston, Sept. 7, 1866. His mother was Caroline Quarrier Smith. He attended public schools, Kanawha military school, Washington and Lee university and Princeton university, from which he was graduated in 1886 with an A. B. degree. He began the study of law at the University of Virginia. This course was interrupted by illness but later he studied law in the office of his uncle, William A. Quarrier of Charleston, and was admitted to the bar in 1889. Starting practice alone, he soon became a member of the firm of Adams and Smith. Later, he was associated with the legal firm of Couch, Flournoy & Smith. Mr. Couch, withdrew and the firm became known as Flourney, Price and Smith.

He began his musical career at Washington and Lee university, where he was an assistant organist. For many years he played the pipe organ at Kanawha Presbyterian church. This organ, donated by his great grandfather, Isaac Noyes, was probably the first one west of the Allegheny mountains. Mr. Smith was an ardent tennis player, having introduced the sport in Charleston. In 1881, he constructed a tennis court in his father's yard at Morris and Kanawha streets after ordering playing equipment from a New York dealer. He was the donor of the large three-year challenge trophy in Charleston's first invitational amateur tennis championship tournament.
