JOHN SWEAT DEAD.
Pa-aIytic, Pauper and Murderer. Takes
His Own Life. !

His Own Life. i
The suicide Of John Sweat, paraly-
tic; pauper, former convict and con-
victed murderer at his home at Ban
nockburn in Berricn county, Georgia
few days ago. removed from that
section character as strange as ever
was pictured by a novelist.
Fate visited great Affections on
Sweat. When he was 81 years old he
was stricken with q battling form
of rheumatism that paralyzcd his
lower limbs and so affected his spine
that his head was drawn backward,
leaving his eyes always staring up
ward. His arms were not touched
and their strength was arkable un-
til the day he sent a load Of shot
crashing through his. brain.
From the time he was stricken ,un-
til his suicide, a period Of about 40
years, Sweat was neither able to lie
down nor stand up. When he slept 1t
was in rolling chair. He got about
in a small cart to which he drove an
OK he managed to train to an amazing
degree. -, ,..s...
In this cart, Sweat frequently hunt
ed, being able to kill game when found
in trees. 1t was only by rolling his
eyes that the afflicted man. was able
to see in any direction except straight
up:~ -. -,
sweqt's physical condition did NOT
prevent him from marrying, and he
was the father of seven children.
NeiGhbors asserted that he controlled
his family with an iron hand. His
suffering caused him TO develop vio-
lent temper and he was generally
feared.
One OF Swcat's neighbors was
John Faulkner. 1t was for Faulkncr's
murda, that he was given Life i'm
prisonment. Testimony at the trial
which occurred number. Of years ago
seemed to show that Sweat became
angered at Faulkner, who was ~
years old, over some trivial incident
and drove to his hodse and called him
to tie door, explaining that he had
come to kill him. Faulkner replied
that he was old and his fighting days
were over and turned to leave. From
his OK cart, the paralytic opened fire
with his shotgun. Faulkner fell to
the ground dead.
Sweat then turned to one of his
young sons who was in the cart with
him and commanded him to catch
Mrs. Faulkner and bring her to him.
The boy tried to carry out the instruc-
tlon but the woman ran.
Sweat then drove to Nashville and
surrendered to the sheriff; While In
Jail. Sweat spent his time in his roll
ing chair and was described as being
the most troublesome prisoner ever
confined in the Bcrrien county jail.
/ At the trial he was convicted oil
murder, the jury recommending that
he be given life sentence. AT the
state farm, Sweat was trouble
some prisoner. There was practically
no work that he could do. He spent
his days and nights in his rolling
chair, alternately singing, praying and
swearing.
In few months his family began
u long fight to secure his freedom. He
was released under parole about five
years ago. II was fear that he would
again be carried back to prison that
prompted Sweat to get into his cart.
drive down the roadway about two
miles from homo and end his life with
his shotgun.

Members Of Congress:

Members of Congress:
You have been called in cXtraordi-
nary session to give your consideration
TO national problems far too pressing to
be long neglected. We face our tasks
of legislation and administration amid
conditions as difficult rs our govern
mcnt has ever contemplated. Under
our political system the people Of the
United States have charged the new
congress and the new administration
with the solutior-thc rcadjustments'
reconstruction and restoration which
must follow in the wake of war.
II may be regretted that we were SO
illy prepared for wars aftermath, so
little made ready to return to the ways
of ncacc. but we arc not tn be i;Scour-
aged. Indeed we must be the moro
firmly resolved to undertake our work
with high hope and invite every factor
in our citizenship to join in the effort
to find our normal. onward way again.
The American people have appraised
the situation, and with that tolerance
and patiencc which go with understand
inS they will give to us the influence
of the deliberate public opinion which
ultimately becomes the cdlct oil any
nopu,ar government. They arc meas
urInc some or the stern necessities ana
will iDin in the give and take which Is
su essential To firm r-rstablishmcnt.
Home Problems First.

uur problems ut home. even though
some plasCs of them arc iHscparably
linked with our foreign relations. The
surcst procedure in every government
is to put it's own house in order

at home than to restrict our natlonai

An Exhibit of Cows and Cow
Facts.

Those who saw the six cows shown
in the Cow Testing Association Ex-
hibit which was staged at the fair by
our County Agent H. r, Noble, were
convinced that you cannot always
tell by the looks of COW how far
she will jump as far as her milk and
butter production and CONSEQUENT
profits are concerned. Two eight
year-old grade Guernseys from Ed
ward Murrish's herd surprised their
owner and every one else who saw
them Francis the better COW
with same care, feed and attention
gave 1T. pounds more butter fat
and sos more net profit in a one-year
period than Beauty" a good looking
COW of the same age.
7. A. Dowling's two Jerseys at
tracted much attention when Mr..
Noble announced their records after
the spectators had made their selec-
ton of ''the best cow" "Brownie",
a tWo-year-old Jersey made a SPLEEN
did yearly record of 354 pounds of
butter fat, or nearly three times as
much as her adjacent half-sister of
the same age receiving equal care
and feed.
Willard Huson's two pure bred
Holsteins fooled nearly every one
who guessed on the production. The
large typey cow-the best locker
gave nearly fifty pounds less butter
fat in her last years production than
the much smaller, poorer looking
competitor. However both were ex-
ceptional producers having made
yearly records of 412 and $50 lbs. of
butter fat respectively.
These records and the exhibit were
meant to show the value of COW test
ing association work where yearly
production records andfeed costs are
kept on each COW in the herd This
is Ine right way 10 Dullu up HeTu
or as Mr.. Noble said: ITO find out if
COWS keep you or you keep cows"
Due to Mr.. Mobiles splendid efforts
Iowa county has seven Of these asso-
Citations organized with 1900 COWS on
test. This breaks the record in this
line of work for any and all counties
in America and indicates that Iowa
county is forging ahead in the dairy
business on a firm and lasting found
alton.
