Obituary
Elizabeth Swigart
Elizabeth Miller was born near Mansfield, Ohio, January 9th, 1832, and departed this life at the home of her son in Newton, Iowa, Monday, Feb. 3rd, 1911, age 79 years. She was married to Solomon Swigart, March 7th, 1850, and eleven children were born to them, nine of whom still live. They emigrated from Ohio to Indiana in an early day and from thence to Iowa, and then to Nebraska in 1880. They settled on a homestead south of Sweetwater, where her husband died in 1900.
Mother Swigart was a member of the Baptist church from her girlhood. The funeral services were conducted in the M.E. church by Pastor Clifton, Feb.17th, and the body was laid to rest in the Ravenna cemetery beside that of her husband.
Mrs. Swigart was essentially a pioneer and endured all the hardships of early Nebraska life.

Golden Wedding
The Editor has heard of golden weddings all his life but, until the 7th of this month, never attended one.
Our father and mother, on that date, celebrated their fiftieth anniversary, near Hazad, Neb. Six brothers and on one sister were present. Two sisters were not able to attend.
Your humble servant is the oldest of the family, being 48 this month. The baby, A. M., now in the 15th Infantry Regulars, located at Fort Columbus, New York, 27 years old.
George W., of Newton, Iowa; W.L. of DesMoines, Iowa; Denny C. of Sheldon, Nebr.; M.F. of Hazad, Nebr.; and Adeline Gaither, of Mufford, Nebr.; were the children present. Martha Pry, of Litchfield, and Mary Stocker, of Sothern Cal., could not be present.
Other relatives present were T. S. Gaither, of Tuffard, Jessie Crosley, of Central City, Lydia Miller, of Montrose, Kan., and Frank Swigart, of Beatrice, Nebr., beside neighbors and friends, and children and grandchildren galore.
Barring the fact that the two sisters could not be with us, we had three days of complete enjoyment; an occasion that will be remembered while life lasts, by all who were present.
Father is 74 years of age, and mother is 6 years younger. They are in fairly good health for peope of their age. They were born, raised and married near Mansfield, Ohio. In 1852, they moved to the wild woods of northern Indiana, at that time in the far west; in 71 they moved to central Iowa: In 80 to central Nebraska.
Of eleven children, one died in infancy, and one died last Dec. at the age of 30. The family are generally robust and healthy.
Father and mother were the recipients of some valuable presents, which they will put to use every day in fond recollection of their long to be remembered anniversary.
At this writing, all have gone home, except the soldier brother who is on a sixty days furlough, and will return to New York about the first of May.
The ever present kodak played a good part in the entertainments, and the front door yard, with its animated contents will be reproduced and sent to many who could not be present.
It is not often that an editor or secretary of an insurance company has the privilege of a weeks' vacation, but we did, and to say that we enjoyed it, is mildly stating the case.
Of course we hope again and again to meet, but the probabilities are that we will not meet on this side of the river.
- John Young Mason Swigart
