The Gettysburg Compiler Of the llth inst.
says: 1t becomes our painful duty to announce
the death of Mr.. George Swope, the venerable
President of the Gettysburg National Bank.
During long life he enjoyed degree Of
health more than ordinarily robust, but for
the last few months old age advanced its lines
rapidly and led TO final dissolution, quietly
and peacefully, about O'Clock on Tuesday
evening.
Mr.. Swope was a native Of the neighbor-
ing town of Hanover, but received portion
of his education at a school taught by Samu-
ell Ramsey, in Gettysburg. When yet mere
lad he accompanied particular friend Of the
family, MIR. Hoke, to North Carolina, and
spent year or more there assisting in astore.
He was also employed in n store kept BY Mr..
Evans, in Gettysburg, where the Globe Inn
now is. He subsequently married Catharine
Smyser (only daughter Of Hon. George Smy-
ser,) and opened store in the building now
owned aud III part occupied by the First Ma
tional Bank, and afterwards removed it TO
the present post office room.
! Selling out, he returned to Hanover with a
view to mercantile pursuits there, but his
father-in.law in the meantime purchased the
''oid Jail lot, corner Of York and Stratton
streets, and improved it with commodious
buildings. Induced to share this elegant
home, Mr.. Swope came back and fixed his
permanent residence here. This occurred in
1888 or "a. In November, ls40, Mr.. Swope
was elected President of The Bank of Gettys.
burg, and re- elected year after year ever since.
Bringing to the responsible position fond
ness for finance, supported by large fund OF
practical common sense and sound judgment,
the bank prospered greatly under his Presi.
dency, and reached a point in popular conf
dence eNcelled by none other. In his death
the bank loses a prudent guardian, and the
community a useful and respected citizen.
His connection with the Water Company, the
Turnpikes, the Railroad, and Evergreen Gem
etery, developed his foresight and care. His
wealth probably exceeds that Of any other
Citizen Of the county.
He reached the ripe age of IS years 2
months aud % days.

On Sunday morning last Sheriff Woods and
one Of his assistants, upon going into the
Jail, discovered that several boards were loose
in the cell occupied by Theodore johnson,
colored. Upon further examination they
found that a part Of bar in the iron door of
the cell OF Frank Johns, colored, had been
sawed of; that the flooring and several bricks
under il, in the doorway OF the cell Of j. IVES.
ley Everhart, were loose; that Thomas Har-
ding, colored, had torn out the wall near his
cell door; and that work toward getting the
gratingoutofthe aier-closetwindow had been
done. OF course none Of the occupants OF
these cells had any hand " the work, so the
Sheriff, tomake all secure, changed two Of
them 10 oihcrcells and hobbled them all. In
addition, he confined allthe prisoners in their
cells. Had they not been detected on Sum
day, il is very probable they would have
made good their escape before Monday
morning
On Tuesday the County Commissioners Wis.
tied the Jail, examined these places, and
looked around the premises to see what was
needed IN the way OF repairs. The building
is very unsafe, and the best way 10 repair i
would be TO tear il down and erect a new one.
