He was owned by the Curtiss Candy -Comnauy farms near Cary. t The animal's skelleton will be sent to the Smithsonian Institution for scientific research at tWe request of Dr. Remington Kellogg, director of the Institution, according to Otto Schnering, president of Curtiss. At the suggestion of Congressman Ralph Church of Illinois, Swanky Dan's hide has been requested by Dean H. P. Rusk of the University of Illinois College of Agriculture for exhibition purposes. Swanky Dan's age was the equivalent to approximately 100 years of human life, according to Delbert H. Kingeston, superintendent of livestock of the Curtiss farms, Hifl death followed a. stroke caused by a cerebral hemorrhage. Since he came to the United States from Scotland as a yearling, Swanky Dan has dominated the show rings of the nations.
