RESULTS AIM OF SAM JONES;
HE CARED MORE FOR EFFECT
THAN POLISH OR ELEGANCE
PithyExpressions from
Revival Sermons at
St. Louis.
The Rev. Sam Jones was a "shirt-
.leeves orator.” He never stood upon
ceremony: convention troubled him
not. He drehsed aa he pleased,^talked
„ he pleased, km]. cared more for the
effect of his sermohB than tl)e language
In which they' were, clothed.
Results were Sam Joijes 1 objects.
None can say' (hat he did not obtain
them. Thousands >vho Were drawn to
his crowded halls through curiosity to
hear the "hell and damnation preach
er," went away soberly, thinking of
their souls-as-they had never thought
before.
Sam Jones reached those whom pol
ished preachers of fashionable pulpits
could never reach. .He drew them
from the highways and byways:, from [.
the office and the shop: from the rich i,
and the poor;, the nrrogunt and the I
meek. Thousands who had heard no I
sermon for years went to hear,- him I
when he reached their cities. And ’
■'those who came to scoff remained to!'
pray." - '
But If Satnr Jones’ sentences were
not drops of limpid English, they were
gems of brilliancy. He said things fn
a way one could .not forget. He garn
ered from, every field for hjs illustra
tions; np source was too unconven
tional for him to borrow an anecdote
to point a-, moral. Somb of his say
ings burned deeply; some will be re
membered 'for'generations. , A feW of
the most characteristic, drawn from
published stendgraphfc reports of his
sermons, are given. -

The picture of Sam Jones preaching
In his shirtsleeves is one of the trtost
characteristic portraits of the great
evangelist ever publlihed. It
taken by an amateur with a hand
camera .while Sam, Jones was leading
the great revival In the Moody Taber
nacle at Cain and Williams streets,
nine years a,go. 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.
“You will have to excuse me, pe.o-
ple,” he said. "This fight 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 w^as hanging
on the wall In the corridor of the
Jones residence In Cartersvllle when
the body of the evangelist, was borne
through the door Tuesday, and Is be
lieved 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 realization of

Special to The Georgian.
Cartersvllle, Ga., Oct. .18.—Citizens,
frlenda 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 fur. him a
monument that will stand forever In
the hearts of his people.
"Before Sam Jones left,” said J. \V.
Vaughan, a close friend and neighbor
oi the evangelist, "he built a monu
ment that will last and be seen by
the nation. He stood out In his own
Individuality, ilia constitution and by
laws In all things was 'Right!'.
"His name, 'Sam Jones,' was the
definition of the mnn.
"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
and true manhood, he was not afraid i
of anybody or anything.
Ahead 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 thsy were those
to whom he had said: ‘Thou art the
men.'
"To know and to see him love was
beautiful. None but a man possess
ing such a wonderfully big heart could,
love aa he. Th£ child that was.sick
or the man in trouble were the ob
jects of his greatest qffectlon. Surely.
I never knew a man to love like Sam
Jones. *
"Generosity. The tvord.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 81,000,000 that came to
him was given away largely aa a
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. Akerman’s Tribute.
It would be useless to attempt to
describe the Intense grief of (his
community caused by the death and
toss we have sustained," said W. Aker-
man, Cartprsvllle’s postmaster. “I
have known Brother Jones for thirty
years and the only weak spot I have
ever found In hts character, If It could
really be called a weak one, was that
he often seemed to think that every
one was as honest ns 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 aide of his character
that always Impressed ono was that he
seemed to be ever on the' watch to
keep hla friends end neighbors from
giving him any advantage In a busi
ness transaction outside of his minis
terial calling.
“In any project he would always
say: ‘Now, boys, Just let me know
what my part Is and it will be forth-
coming.’ ”
Judge Wikle's Words.
Judge J. R. Wlkle, now fn his
eighty-fourth year, and whose thor
oughly preserved mental faculties
make him an Interesting citizen of
Cartersvllle, Is a close friend and stu
dent of public questions nnd every
thing that relates to the welfare’and
betterment of hla fellow man.
He waa 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 of his
boys. He was always Impressed with

-SAM JONES AT ST. LOUIS.
In a sermon In St. Louis In March, 1895, Mr. Jones, after say
ing In substance that his service to his fellow man was compensation
enough for him and giving his audience to understand that though he
was making more than,825,000 per annum he was not accumulating
nny wealth, continued:
"When I go to my room every night with my clothes dripping with
sweat, and'when 1 nm tired, of body, I pray God to help me In this city,
so that men will rise up when 1 nm dead and gone nnd aay: ‘I thank
God that these meetings were held in Exposition Hall.'
"I do not know of any work a mnn can do which Is so
great or so good as that If endeavoring to save souls. It Is a crowned
work this side of heaven. There Is not an angel tonight who would not
come down here gladly and take my place and give me his place up

Judge, "attracted and held the esteem

the confidence and the esteem of hia
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
young manhood, vorloua clrcumstancea
n his private life and hla peculiar en
vironments gave him opportunities to
acquire hla moat remarkable Insight
Into human nature.
"He was a born genius and became
well equipped for bis life’s work which
has been moat useful. His fellow citi
zens appreciated and loved him, and
hla passing from among ua baa 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. C.
Walton, "how much our section was
blessed by the life of Sam Jones, which
he has spent among us. I regard hla
death as a distinct and Irreparable loss
to the country, to Cartersvllle and Bar
tow county. Hid Impress upon the re
ligious and moral llfe.of our people was
greater than that of any man who has
ever lived In this community.
"Hla 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 and
hope to strike hands with him again on
the other shore."
“We 8hall Miss Him."
"Sam Jones dead!
"His neighbors and friends could
hardly realise these words were true,”
said Judge A. M.. Fout. "We were
simply dazed. That wo should seo
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 mlea him. We shall not
see hts like again. God gives but one
such man to a generation. His kind
ness touched every heart, every home.
His leaving us Is a distinct loss to Car-
teravllle, 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

"Ikying aside his wit and power of

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 toss greatly mourned
His loss Is Irreparable.”
From Men Who Knew Him.
"His 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 the
entire country wss Immemorable.
a citizen and evangelist he was
worker for the right. He was ever
charitable and kind. He filled a place
which waa 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 waa a friend and a
helper of the widow. He was 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 assist. Cartersvllle and
Georgia will miss him and the whole
country will keenly feel the loss. One
of my beat friends has gone and he
was a friend In every sense of the
word.”
