JOSEPH N. CULLING WORTH.
Joseph N. Cullingworth, son of William
and Mary Whitlock Cullingworth,
was born in Richmond, Va., February
-1 At K UMA jU/I of Vita V? r\rr% a |n
IWLU, IOIV, aiiu uiou au uio uvuiw AM* *V*VM
mond, Va., July 14th, 1911, after a long
and useful life, in the seventy-second
year of his age. These simple dates
mark the beginning and the end, but tell
little of the long, useful, noble and influential
life that lay between.
The early boyhood of Mr. Culllngworth
gave evidence of his mental activity
and fondness for books. After receiving
the necessary preparatory education,
he entered the University of
Virginia, where he was diligently preparing
himself for the profession of law,
In which, had he entered, he would
doubtless have had a most successful
if not brilliant career. But the call of
his homeland for patriotic men led him
to leave the University and enter the
army. He at first joined the Richmond
Howitzers, but later entered the Ordnance
Department, where he became
Ideutenant of Ordnance. In his modest,
retiring way he rendered much service
with signal ability. Present at the first
engagement at Manassas, he continued
through the war and was with General
I^ee at Appomattox at its close.
/' On March 16th, 1864, he was united
in marriage to Cordelia J., daughter of
William L. and Cordelia Copeland McMinn.
For forty-seven years this union
existed, and a typical christian home it
proved to be, each member growing in
likeness to the other and both exerting
rn Influence for good through the nearHere

THE PRESBYTER!/
ly half-century they were privileged to
live together. Of this union one son was
born, who died in his infancy.
At the close of the war, Mr. Cullingworth
returned to his native city, and
by reason of the ravages of war and the
changed condition of affairs, found it
necessary to alter his plans for the future.
He accordingly went into business,
changing the nature of it as occason
demanded, until finally he entered
the tobacco business, out of which
was gradually built up the large and
well known and successful firm of J.
N. Cullingworth and Company. At one
time Mr. Cullingworth was connected
with the old Richmond Enquirer, and
on account of his literary ability was
offered a permanent position thereon.
But seeing there was a good opening
for the establishment of a fine business
and recognizing the responsibility that
rested upon him in the impoverished
condition of the city and State at the
close of the war, he sacrificed his natural
inclinations and personal choice,
and began a business career of honor
Infliisnna or>?1 ?i nnfnl
While a student at the University, Mr.
Cullingworth attended a revival service
conducted by Dr. Broaddus, became interested
in the subject of religion and
yielded himself a subject of the Master.
Unlike many under such circumstances,
he saw the necessity of immediate connection
with the Church, and united
with the Presbyterian Church there.
As soon as he was settled in Richmond
he moved his membership to the First
Presbyterian Church in Richmond, in
which, for forty-odd years, he was an
active, devoted, honored member. In
1880 the congregation recognized his
worth and made him a deacon, where
he rendered such excellent service, that,
in 1890, he was made a Ruling Elder,
which position he filled with much credit
and honor to himself and the Church
till the time of his death.
In the last few years, by reason of
some heart trouble, Mr. Cullingworth
was compelled to give up active church
work. About two years ago he retired
from business, beloved and honored by
ttn. rur me pn?i two years ne nas
sought relief by a sojourn in a more
southerly clime, hut he returned last
May from Florida more exhausted than
usual, and on the evening of July 14th,
while sweetly sleeping, his hand clasped
in that of his beloved wife, he entered
into the presence of the L<ord and
received the welcome plaudit, "Well
done, good and faithful servant."
On a lovely Sabbath afternoon he was
laid to rest in beautiful Hollywood
Cemetery, the funeral services beingconducted
by his pastor, Dr. F. T. McFaden,
at the First Presbyterian
Church, in the presence of a large and
representative congregation.
As a business man Mr. Cullingworth
stood high in integrity. In his business
as elsewhere, his name was a synonym
for fair and honest dealings in all enterprises.
His word was his bond. Of
excellent, sound judgment, with a judi
cial turn of mind, he was sometimes
called upon to act as arbiter in disputes
or differences of opinion among his acquaintances
and friends, and so much
confidence did they have in his impartiality
and judgment, that they never
appealed from his decisions. Two years
ago, when he retired from business,
several of the business firms with which
he had dealings for years, surprised
him with a beautifully inscribed loving
cup that gave him much joy.
As a man, Mr. Cullingworth was gentle,
courageous, modest, retiring. He
never mingled much in public or political
life, but one who had the good fortune
to become well acquainted, saw his
worth and knew he was a man among
men.
As a churchman, Mr. Cullingworth
was pre-eminent. He loved the church
at large, his local church and everything
that pertained to the advancement
of Christ's Kingdom. As a member for a
few years of the Board of Trustees of
Hampden-Sidney College and of the
Ministerial Relief Fund while that fund
was administered in Richmond, and of
other actvlties at large, he gave evidence
of his interest in and love for all
that belonged to the church. Liberal to
all causes, gifted to an unusual degree
in public prayer, a regular attendant
on the church services, and a veritable
assistant to the pastor while he
was in health, the Church loses a valued
and honored officer, and member.

unusual degree. Conservative !in his
viewB, he was ever ready cheerfully to
yield to the majority and to work zealously
with them.
Mr. Cullingworth shone in his own
home. He recognized that God had Bet
the solitary in families. Here he showed
to great advantage. His gentle ways,
his affectionate interest in the welfare
of each member, his earnest, beautiful,
fervent prayers about the family altar,
his extensive knowledge of the Word of
God and the practical application of it
to his daily living, all made him the
center of an ever increasing and admiring
circle of loved ones and favored
friends.
As a Christian, Mr. Cullingworth had
a strong, abiding faith in a personal,
living Christ. To him religion was a
reality, and the controlling and guidtnff

periences of that christian life were
sometimes revealed to the pastor, and
then It was known what was the secret
of his success and usefulness and life
in all its phases. To the poor he was a
friend. The pastor was a constant contributor
or disbursing officer for him of
his means to them, the Lord's poor.
Such a man will be missed in the
city, in the church, in the home. One
feels like saying, "Know ye not that a
great man and a Prince in Israel has
fallen this day." "My father, my father,
the chariot of Israel and the
horsemen thereof."
The following resolutions were adopted
by the session of the First church:
"Whereas God in his loving Providence
has called to himself Mr. J. N.
Cullingworth, for more than fifty years
an active and influential member of this
Church, for ten years of this time an
efficient deacon, for twenty-one years
an honored and beloved Ruling Elder;
a man whose strength of character and
uprightness of life and interest in all
things pertaining to the good of men
and the advancement of Christ's Kingdom
distinguished him among men; a
man whose love for the Church and the
First Presbyterian Church of Richmond
in particular never grew cold, but wax
ed greater and greater each year;
Therefore be it resolved by the Elders
of the First Presbyterian Church,
his co-laborers in the Master's cauBe;
First, That while we bow in humble
submission to the will of Him who
doeth all things well and who knows the
end from the beginning, we hereby express
our deep sense of the great loss
which has been sustained by this
Church in the removal by death of our
honored brother, who was foremost in
all good works and an interested participant
in all the work of the Church;
Second, That the officers of this
church would extend to the members of
his family th<fr deep sympathy and
great affection, and commend them to
God and the Word of his Grace, which
is able to build them up and give them
an inheritance among all them which
are sanctified;
Third, That a memorial page be set
apart in the Sessional Records, and
these resolutions be entered thereon;
Fourth, That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to the loved ones, with the
prayer that the Lord will lift upon them
his countenance and give them peace."
"Servant of God, well done,
Rest from they loved employ;
The battle fought, the victory won,
Enter thy Master's joy."
"And I heard a voice from heaven
saying unto me, Write: From henceforth
blessed are the dead who die In
the L<ord; yea, saith the Spirit, that
they 'may rest from their labors, and
their works do follow them."
