A quiet, unassuming gentleman, he performed the duties of his office with fidelity and care, and with satisfaction to "the public. He was greatly liked by those who knew him best, and his ieath brings sorrow to many. Funeral services were conducted .it ihe home Sunday morning at 0 oViock by Rev. Louis J. Bristow, assisted by Rev. C. E. Peele. The body was taken over the Southern railway -ro h-:c r.lH Vinrrip noar Peak for burial.

The burial wr.s had in the cemetery at Peak and was largely attended by the friends of other days and by his many relatives in that community. i Mr. Swetenburg was the first, ieath in his immediate family which makes it seem peculiarly sad,- but it should not be forgotten that in this respect the family was greatly blessed and above many others, because! there are few families in ich you will not find the vacant <.ru.ir.
