During the depression, he couldn't find work and he had eight children to feed.  Evidently he became very depressed and went in the barn and drank lye and died.  Jerry, his son, was only 5 years old.

Opal remarried later to Strouse and that marriage ended in divorce.

Birth/Marriage/death Family records of Opal Law.
She stated that death occured in Troy Township, Michigan.
Family information from Gerald Swindler (Jerry) while he was visiting in Las Vegas.
7-14-96 In my home

Helen Swindler Rennell's  telephone  interview....8-7-99   She talked about her Dad's death .."He always worried about feeding the family and taking care of us.  He was a good father...held us on his lap  and read the funny papers to us.  Have a lot of good memories of him.  He could grow anything on our half acre.  He was a funny man and didn't get along well with Opal's brothers and was a bit moody when they were around.  They would like to horse play....go and throw cabbages at each other in his garden  and that made him angry.  Sometimes the things that the Law boys did, wasn't funny...they thought it was funny at the time  but it didn't turn out to be funny (like destroying Leo's garden).  There was a little bit of a mean streek in some of the things they did."

Helen is sure that he died in 1931....
