I wish to remind you at the outset that thera if nothing-we can do or say that will change or affect the record of hec.Jife, so far as she is concerned. She has gone to report to tKe~Judge of all the earth, and His decision iaj final. IJe has the last word on life: not nnlv nn, hnf Hp will alert 1mve tfra 1ft s t Aypfrf Oft fftt OWWttvftH." There is much in the not>le life that she lived! which will serve to help those of us whom she has left behind. If I had the^time, I would speak of Mrs. Swygert: (1) as a citizen; (a) as a friend; (3) as a Christian mother As a citizen, Mrs! Swjfeert was a member of one of the most noble and thrifty families of tly race in?*hift= county, and -not oply. in this county but Kjirigjil say anvwtmre. I need' only to~refer to the many sisters and brothers she has left behind^pho are making such asplendid record for the race and for mankind in their own communities. :' p?? ~ In speaking of thd life of this sainted woman as a citizen, it is not "to~ Kn nrncnmorl tViot T r? a n rrivn + V10 -fnl 1 _ est expression of her worth and standing in immunity Two pOSSeSsions were- hers, and on them she was absolutely dependent. These were her -muscles, ahd her large stock of hopefulness. Wilh_?he one she could labor, by the other she was cherished. She was not simply a consumer ,t but a producer. Farming, isewingr chitt ning fruits and vegetables in all of this and ntoro ahc_was a success.?She had] business tact and foresight. She had also the wisdom and good graces to sacrifice that her children might have a- chance in life. Whatever the position of Mrs. Swygert, her spirits never forsook her. If sad, her sadness was softened by song;- No gloom was suffered to abide on her spirit. Adversity couldnot eclipse her cheerfulness, nor op presslon dampen her joy. Mrs. Swygert was -a.-friend. She -nourished grudge and harbored no re* nourished grudge, and hrobored no revenge. " She is also to be remembered for her loyalty ,and devotion to her children. "SKe", like the most of us, had "sorner-dhBrolty in findtttg means" to keep her children in school. But no year came tocr hard for her'to deny her little ones a chance, for school. Even amid the ravages of the-boll weevil, whenever the college openeJ her doors, two or more of her children answered to the roll call. - -Proud, of the life of Mrs. Swygert? Yes, we. are rroud. She made Jesus her friend. "Beautiful life with such a friend; Beautiful life that has no end." She said in her last moments: "f am standing in the very road^JTd Heaven with my hands <ir> -my children." I want to. say to yotuchildreh, stay in the road. .
