Swank of Johnstown, for many years editor of the Johnstown TRIBUNE, who died Sunday, was held at the late home of the deceased on Main Street, Johnstown, Wednesday and was very largely attended. Mr. Swank had been ailing for some months prior to his death. George Thompson Swank was for about 30 years editor and most of the time sole proprietor of the Johnstown TRIBUNE. His parents were residents of Indiana County and the future editor, after living there for some years, went to Rock Island, Ill., and other Western cities, where he followed his trade of printer. He later went to New York where he enjoyed a responsible position on the TRIBUNE and one of his treasured possessions was a letter from Horace Greeley. Mr. Swank enlisted in a New York regiment and served in the Civil War until the battle of Gettysburg, when he received a wound in the back which affected him all of the rest of his life. He came back to Johnstown and in a few years took over the TRIBUNE from his brother, James Swank, now editor of the Iron and Steel Association’s BULLETIN. From that time until he sold the paper to its present owners, he made the TRIBUNE noted over the entire state for the biting brevity of its editorial paragraphs. His sister, Mrs. Lee, a widow, has managed his home for years and since selling the TRIBUNE he has lived quietly at his handsome residence on Main Street. Mr. Swank was 74 years old. Two sisters survive.
