The Biographical Record of McLean County, Illinois by S. J. Clarke Publishing Company Pdf

Excerpt from The Biographical Record of McLean County, Illinois: Illustrated Even while in business Mr. Swayne was deeply interested in scientific subjects and gave considerable time and thought thereto. After taking up his residence in this county he spent many hours daily in pursuing his investigations in paths that others had trod and along new and original lines. He made a specialty of chemistry and fitted up a Splendid laboratory in con nection with which he had one of the largest and most complete scientific libra ries in the state. He inherited the strong mental traits of his father, although they were manifest in a different department of knowledge. His mind was keenly analyt ical and he was never content until he had gained the mastery of the subject that engrossed his attention. His interest, how ever, was not confined alone to scientific study. He endorsed and encouraged every department of learning, and music had for him especial charms. On the second of December, 1875, Mr. Swayne was united in marriage to Miss Sarah W. Davis, a lady of superior culture and the daughter of judge David Davis, whose history is familiar to every student of the annals of Illinois. In his home he delighted to gather around him his friends, and though their number was not ex tensive they found him a most genial and entertaining host, and friendship to him was inviolable. At length his health began to fail, and he went abroad spending a year and a half in travel on the continent, but a few months after his return his death oc curred, November 8, 1893.
