June 2, 1888
S. T. Swift.—This gentleman, who died in Carson Thursday, was one of Ormsby
county’s oldest citizens and officers, and a general feeling of sorrow seems to
exist.  Mr. Swift was one of the Pioneers of the Pacific Coast, one of the live
stirring men of early days, both in Carson and Chicago, where his young manhood
was passed, and there is perhaps no man in this State who has experienced more
ups and downs than the departed.  He was always foremost to assist in anything
that tended to the improvement of the State of his adoption, and should have
died a millionaire, but such men do not.  The deceased was Sheriff of Ormsby
county fourteen years; he organized the Swift Engine Company of Carson.  He was
a member of the Masonic fraternity; also of the order of Red Men.  The funeral
will take place in Carson to-day.
