In 1840 he became the first leader of the first Free Will Baptist Theological School (later known as Cobb Divinity School) which was first located in Parsonsfield, Maine attached to Parsonfield Seminary before moving to Lowell, Massachusetts, and then Whitestown, New York and eventually merging with Bates College. Smart led the institution until 1849 and later led his own school for a period. He preached in Russia, New York for several years. He then returned to Whitesboro in 1866 and taught ancient languages at Whitestown Seminary until 1871. Smart died in Whitestown, New York in 1873 of consumption.
