The picture of Sam Jones preaching
In his shirt sleeves Is one of the most
characteristic portraits of the. great
evangelist Over published. It was
taken by an amateur with a hand
camera while Sam Jones was leading
the great revtyal in the Moody Taber
nacle at Cfeln and Williams streets,
nine years ago. George Stuart was
there and Exum, the great revivalist,
was aiding In carrying the congrega
tion to a height of enthusiasm.
Sam Jones grew heated. He was
speaking in impassioned tones to the
overflowing crowd. Suddenly he
paused.
"Yx>u will have to excuse me, peo
ple,” he said. "This light Is getting
too warm for me. I'll have to shell
out of this coat and get down to busi
ness.”
The small photograph was enlarged
and a copy sent to Mrs. Jones, the
wife of the evangelist. It was hanging
on the wall in the corridor of the
Jones residence In Cartersvtlle when
the body of the * evangelist was borne
through the door Tuesday, and Is be-
"**ved to be the only copy in existence.
Mrs. Jones consented to its use by
The Georgian with hesitancy. Weep
ing bitterly, she declared that It was
priceless to her, the dearest picture
she possessed. Only her realisation of
the great Interest of the public In all
that touches upon her late husband at
this time Induced her.to part with It
for a few days.

By CHARLES E. HARP.
Special to The Georgian.
Cartersvllle, Ga., Oct. 18.—Citizens,
friends and neighbors of Sam Jones
In Cartersvllle have none but words
of praise and admiration for the man,
the preacher, the husband and the
father. His life among the people of
this section of the state, his constant
warfare against evil, his lovable char
acter and charity have built for him a
monument that will stand forever In
the hearts of his people.
“Before Sam Jones left,” said J. W.
Vaughan, a close friend and neighbor
of the evangelist, "he built a monu
ment that will last and bo seen by
the nation. He stood out In his own
Individuality. His constitution and by
laws In all things was ‘Right!’
"His name, ’Sam Jones,’ was the
definition of the man.
"In private, on the street, In busi
ness circles, in the pulpit, he manifest
ed that great characteristic this world
sorely needs—moral courage. Possess
ing a high Ideal full of righteousness
nnd true manhood, he was not afraid
of anybody or anything.
Ahsad of His Day.
"In many respects he was a man
ahead of his day. He possessed that
geen Intellect that could observe
plan and judge humanity In detail and
tell the sum of his wonderful (gather
ing In a plain and homely way. He
fought with every ounce of his blood
and every atom of his physical and
mental nature. He was always happy-
hearted.
"Many a burdened soul has been
cheered and often the darkest clouds
have been dispersed by the sweetness
and cheerfulness of his encouraging
words. He bore no malice. The sun
never went down on his wrath, and If
he. had any enemies they were those
to whom he had said: ’Thou art the
man.’
“To know and to see him love was
beautiful. None but a man possess
ing such a wonderfully big heart could
love as he. The child that was sick
or the man In trouble were the ob
jects of his greatest affection. Surely,
I never knew a man to love like Sam
Jones. , ■. , .
.’’Generosity. The word does .not de
scribe him. Often he subscribed great
sums without knowing where the mon
ey was to come from. His faith In
God’s promises and the conscientious
ness of being right made him promise
with freedom which he always paid.
He never asked for a dollar where he
was not willing to give two or more In
return.
"His wealth was In - the name he
made and left to the world. He did
not work to accumulate nor did he
hope to be rich.
"The sum of $1,01)0,000 that came to
him was given away largely as
blessing to the world.
"Surely the town, the state, the
South, the nation, has lost a great
man. His days were spent In endeav
oring to establish true manhood In the
citizen, the state and In the church."
Mr. Aksrmsn’s Tribute.
“It would be useless to attempt to
describe the Intense grief of this
community caused by the death and
loss we have sustained,” said W. Aker-
man, Cartersvllle’s postmaster. *’I
have known Brother Jones for thirty
years and the only weak spot I have
ever found In his character, If It could
realty be called a weak one, was that
he often seemed to think that every
one was as honest as himself, and, of
course. In his long career, this some
times led him Into controversy. How
ever, I have always .found him ready
to meet one as a man and no one could
stay angry with him any length of
time. Another side of his character
that always Impresses one was that he
seemed to be ever on the watch to
keep his friends and nelrhbors from
giving him any advantage In a busi
ness transaction outside of hts minis
terial calling.
"In any project he would always
say: ’Now, boys, just let me know
whst my part Is and It will be forth,
coming.’"
Judge Wlkts’s Words.
Judge J. R. Wlkle, now In his
eighty-fourth year, and whose thor
oughly preserved mental faculties
make him an Interesting cltlsen of
Cartersvllle, Is a close friend and stu
dent of public queetlons and every
thing that relates to the welfare and
betterment of his fellow man.
He was a close friend of Captain
John J. Jones, father of Sam P. Jones.
He said that he remembered Sam
Jones when he was an associate ot his
boys. He was always Impressed with
the bright mind of the youth and his

“WHEN I AM DEAD I PR A Y
THA 7 MENMA Y THANK GOD
FOR MEETINGS I HELD”
—SAM JONES AT ST. LOUIS.
In* a sermon In St. Louis In March, 1895, Mr. Jones, after say
ing 1 In substance that his service to his fellow man was compensation
enough for him .and giving hla audience to understand that though he
. was mpklng more than $25,000' per annum he was not accumulating
any wealth, continued:
When I go to my room every night with my clothes dripping with
t, nnd when I am tired of bpdy, 1 pray God to help me In this city,
ao that men will rise up when 1 am dead nnd gone and say; T thank
God that these meetings were held In Exposition Hall. 1
"I do not know of any work a man can do which Is so
great or ao good an that If endeavoring to save aoula. It Is a crowned
work this aide of heaven. There Is not nn nngel tonight who would not
come down here gladly and take my place nnd give me'tils’ place up
there. The chance to do good, the opportunity to help men to be good—
how great an opportunity It Is! And, when men take my hand on the
streets and come to the hotel and sit down and say: ’Mr. Jones, I’m a
better man; I’m a better husband; I’m a better father; I’m a better son:
I’ll drink no more; I’ll swear no more; I'll gamble no more; I’ll da right,'the
music of the skies Is not sweeter to the angels than talk lltfe this Is to
me."
remarkable originality.
"His peculiar magnetism," said the
judge, "attracted and held the esteem
of his young associates Just as It has
the confidence and the esteem of his
fellow men In later years throughout
the country.
"The eventful period In the history
of our country at the time when Sam
Jones was passing from boyhood to
... hts private life and his peculiar en
vironments gave him opportunities to
acquire his most remarkable Insight
Into human nnture.
’’He was a born genius and became
well equipped for hts life's work which
has been most useful. His fellow citi
zens appreciated and loved him, and
his passing from among us has deeply
grieved all hearts. His death Is a seri
ous loss In every sense of the word."
From W. C. Walton.
We will never know," said W.
Walton, “how much our section was
blessed by the life of Sam Jones, which
bo has spent among us. I regard his
death as a distinct and Irreparable loss
to the country, to Cartersvllle and Bar
tow county. His Impress upon the re
ligious and moral life of our people was
greater than that of any man who has
ever lived In this community.
"His home people love him and are
saddened beyond expression. Truly, his
life was spent In doing good, and when
he was called from his earthly, labors
we know that he went to Heaven nnd
hope to strike hands with trim again on
the other shore.”
“We 8hall Miss Him."
Sam Jones deadl
‘His neighbors and friends could
hardly realise these words were true,"
said Judge A. M. Fout. "We were
simply dazed. That we should sec
him In the flesh no more, nor hear his
kindly voice again, touched with sad
ness every heart. All were his friends,
all conditions, all colors. He was the
friend of every one.
"We shall miss him. We shall not
see his like again. God itves but one
such man to a generation. His kind
ness touched every heart, every home.
His leaving us Is a distinct loss to Car
tersvllle, to Georgia, to the South, to
the country, for I am persuaded that
his life touched more people for good
than that of any other man living or
dead.
'Monday the angels greeted him
home. Tuesday Cartersvllle received
his tired body to the broken home. He
was my friend. I loved him and hope
to meet him again.”
“Died as He Had Lived.”
“Sam Jonee died as he had lived,
eateemed, honored and loved by every
man Who knew him,” said G. W. Hen
dricks, "He commanded the esteem,
honor and love of' his fellow citizens
because of his honesty of purpose. In
tegrity- of principles, courage of his
convictions and the matchless cham
pionship.for the right and the truth.
"Laying aside his wit and power of
Intellect, his one great characteristic
was charity. He will be missed by
many people In many ways, but his
bounteous hand In matters of charity
to the poor and distressed will be
missed and the loss greatly mourned.
His loss Is Irreparable.”
From Man Who Knaw Him.
"Hla home town was proud of tho
success of Sam Jones as a public man.”
said C. M. Milam. ”1 regard him as
the greatest man of the present time.
His Influence for better lives on tho
entire country was Immemorable. As
a cltlsen and evangelist he was a
worker for the right. He was ever
charitable and kind. He filled a place
which was peculiarly his own, and our
country will never recover the loss."
"Sam Jones was always ready to
help the fallen and the distressed,” said
M. F. Word. "He wae a friend and a
helper of the widow. He wae always
ready to encourage the young man to
lead a better life. In fact, he was the
friend and helper of every one who
would let him aselst. Cartersvllle and
Georgia will miss him and the whole
country will keenly feel the lose. One
of my best friends has gone and he
wae a friend In every sense of the
word.”
"In summing up the character of
Sam Jones,” said E. Strickland, "per
haps no better thing could be said than
that he was ever a, foe of svll and a
defender ot the right and good.
He was a man of finer metal than
those about him, and his great mag
nanimous mind was above the petty
Jealousies so common to humanity. His
death la Indeed a loss to the country
and to this community. He was a
blessing nnd a benediction.
"The personality of the man was a
great force In business, church and
state affairs. A great man has fallen,
and It would seem his place can never
be filled.”
“We feel that we have lost one of
our best and most useful citizens," said
George 8. Crouch. "Sam Jones was
a useful man In a great many ways,
especially In his charity. 1 do not be
lieve that any one ever applied to Mm
for assistance but what It was grant
ed. In his death Cartersvllle has sus
tained a great loss.”
