Volume III, page 163

        FRANK N. SWEITZER.  For the past sixteen years Frank N. Sweitzer
has been an active member of the Stark County bar. The qualities of a fine
mind, the endowment of leadership and a steady and persevering industry
have brought him well to the top of his profession, and he is known both as
a lawyer and man of affairs.
        He was born at Marlboro, Stark County, in 1877, son of Jesse and
Emily (Baum) Sweitzer. During his boyhood days at Marlboro he attended the
grammar and high schools, and like many successful professional men he
relied upon teaching as an experience preliminary to qualifying for the
law. From 1901 to 1905 he was assistant principal of the Canton High
School. During the summer terms of 1902 and 1904 he taught in Wooster
University. In the meantime his higher education was being acquired in Ohio
Northern University at Ada, and in the Illinois College of Law. Mr.
Sweitzer was admitted to the Ohio bar in 1909, in 1913 was admitted to the
United States District Court, and to the United States Supreme Court in
1917. He has rendered important public service as an attorney. From 1910 to
1913 he was a solicitor of Canton, was assistant prosecuting attorney of
Stark County from 1913 to 1915, and from 1916 to 1918 held the office of
county prosecuting attorney. He is a member of the Ohio State and Stark
County Bar associations.
        In former years Mr. Sweitzer was a member of the Teachers Examining
Boards of Canton and Stark County, and for six years was a member of the
Ohio State Library Board. During the World war he was legal advisor to the
Local Draft Boards of Stark County and took an active part in the various
patriotic campaigns of that period. He is affiliated with Lodge No. 68, of
the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, the Knights of Pythias and the
Moose, and in politics is a democrat. Mr. Sweitzer married Miss Alletha Mae
Friedly, of Ada, Ohio. They have one daughter, Marylyn Irene.

etc., and lived in that cabin ten years. He then built a hewed-log house,
that now stands back of his residence, which he built in the summer of
1886, at a cost of $1,200. He also has a good barn. Mr. Luttmann was
