STUART EULOGIZES
HIS OLD COMRADE
Tennessee Evangelist
Delivers Great Fu
neral Address.
Special to The Georgtao.
Carteravlllc, r,a, Oct. II.—Rev.
George Stuart, of Cleveland, Tonn. who
had been QBSlatlng Mr. Jones In evan
gelistic work for the past sixteen
years, offered one of the most fitting
of tributes, to tho memory of his Oenr
friend. He said:
"We meet todey to represent a na
tion in paying our lost tribute of love
to him whose death has brought grief
to the hearts of good people In over
state In the union. There Is no sec
tion In our great country that baa not
heard his voice In the defense of the
right, felt hts Influence for good.
"For more than a quarter of a cen
tury hs has been the most prominent
preacher and lecturer on this conti
nent. He has spoken to more people,
led more men and women to Christ,
brought about, more reforms In per
sonal life and public morals than any
man who has lived In the past hslf
century.
"That he was the greatest man on
the platform In America was proven by
the fact that he could draw more peo
ple together, draw them oftaner, hold
them longer and Influence
"His power Is further provei
fact that this Influence over the peo
ple was not sporadic or spasmodic, but
was constant throughout his career.
"The places he had most frequently
visited were the places where the
est crowds assembled to hear him
the longer he continued to speak
In any community the larger the
crowds grew and tho more anxiously
they waited upon his ministry. The
consensus of public opinion as ex
pressed l>y tile it, tnn 1 preselu’e ..f the
jieople to hear him speak In larger
numbers than have ever heard any
other man In America was a demon
stration of bis poucr.
Influence of Preis.
"The public press keeps the keenest
watch over tho prominent figures of
our clvlllzntlnn.
"More space has been given to Bam
Jones and his work by both religious
and secular press In the past ipiaiter
of a rentury than to any man who has
lived In ’Ihs count'-v. whether preach
er. statesman, reformer or financier.
"More spare has been given In the
announcement --f hts death than Ims
been given to nny mnn who has died
In tho South In fifty years. This is
one of the most significant fads that
prove the wonderful power and Influ
ence of this man of God."
Mr. Stuart then reviewed the past
sixteen years' work with the evangel
ist and his personal observation of .Mr.
es as a preacher, and .as a man.
e said that he had been asked to
tell the secret of this man's success,
but there was no secret and no one,
two or three elements of his character
would bring the success attained and
nothing but the rare combination of all
Mr. Jones' traits of character would
make greatness.
>. Stuart reviewed at length nil
the elements of Mr. Jonhs' personality
that had been brought to his attention
during their past work together and
he had the most glorious gift sver
bestowed upon a man—that of the bap
tism of the Holy Spirit for service.
In. closing Mr. Stuart said:
“Hs Clung to Friends.”
"He clung to His friends with a ten
derness that was beautiful. I have
heard him say time and again: 'God
never made a man who feared Ms
snsmles less and leaned stronger upon
his friends than Sam J ones.'
"His one great burning desire was
that all his household might be con
secrated to God and live devoted
Christian lives.”
FUNERAL ADDRESS
OF WALT HOLCOMB
Co-Worker of Sam
Jones Pays Glow
ing Tribute.
Special to The Georgian.
CarteravlUe, Oa., Oct. 1*.—An elo
quent tribute wits paid the dead evnn
gellst by the Bev. Walt Holcomb, for
years a eo'worker of the Rev. Sam
Jonea. Mr. Holcomb's eulogy was as
follows:
Perhaps not tn the history of the
church of God has there been Just such
on assembly os this. We meet here to
day to do honor to a man who stood
absolutely alone In the Christian
world. This being true this ssrvlce
will go down In history m one sep
arate and distinct because of the
unique and marvelous personality of
the man to whom we this day pay
our last tribute. With our hearts
broken and spirits crushed the most
appropriate words are those of our
Savior to His sorrowing disciples
'Let not your hearts be troubled
believe In God: believe also In Me. In
My Father's house ere many mansions.
If It were not so I would have told
you. I go to prepare a place for you,
and If I go and prepare a place for
you, 1 will come again and receive you
unto Myself, that where a aril there ye
may be also."
Our distinguished end beloved broth
er has Just slipped away to the man
sion above. Jesus came to take him
home. _ . , . _
Monday morning, on a Rock Inland
train from Oklahoma City, we were
aroused about ,* o'clock by the cry of
hie daughter, Mrs. Pyron. saying: Oh,
Mr. Holcomb, hurry to papa. 1 believe
he Is dying." In a moment we were
by hie side, but the fatal stroke had
put an end- to nil that wasmortsl of
our deceased brother. With both of
his hands In mine and close to Ms Via
ble heart, with his good wife and
daughters and secretary by hls stde,
he passed peacefully and quietly to
hts reward. A quiet, calm repose
flayed over-hls face, and we knew that
its white soul had gone home.
He Lived on the Train.
, Brother Jones lived on the train
mere than any other man. He loved
railroads, steam engines, palace cars
and beautiful Pullmans. He loved the
railroad men. from the presidents to
the humblest porter. Among the most
beautiful Illustrations that he has ever
used have been gathered from rail
road scenes. Next to his home what
place oculd he have died that would
have been more homelike to him- The
train had been standlng still nr»n
hour or more, blockaded by a freight
wreck. He had walked through the
car several times and chatted p eas-
antly with the porter. Hie faithful
daughted was making him a cup of
hot water when he suddenly collapsed.
Perhaps God had the train to 'tend
still long though tor ™s wsary, *'”2
servant to He down and die a lin ease
and comfort. Not ""lY ^ld he love the
railroad men, but they loved him with
the tendereet affections. ...
After his death we wired President
J. W Thomas. *f the Nashville, Chatta
nooga and St. I-outs Railway, for a
train to bring his sacred remains home.
Upon our arrival In Memphis w# found
a special train at our disposal. All
along the way men and women stood
around the etatlons with bleeding
hearts, moistened eyes and uncovered
heads as the train went by. Nevsra
train was pullsd more gently than ths
one that brought Mm home. The rail
road men alone the way met the train
with their hearts crushed, offering
sympathy, prayer and help. The
crow-da Increasing as we nesredhome,
until at last you who loved him best
stood with uncovered heads to honor
his homecoming.
His Last Fight.
Brother Jonea has said for years
that he wanted 40 come home from the
hardest fought battle of Ms life Just
before going to Ms reward. Surely It
was Oklahoma City that hs had the
hardest hill to climb. In an Immense
building, poorly prepared for the very
disagreeable weather, he labored day
and night without a murmur or com
plaint. Finally, tired and-wsary, with
his vitality low. we boarded the train
i homeward bound. While **“
closing service, we left a few hours
earlier than he had planned.
While upon the train he seemed
bright and cheerful and spoke of the
victory that had come In the fight. Then
he talked for quite a while with some
traveling men about their becoming
Christians and getting ready for a bet
ter life beyond. Then going to the
berth of hie devoted wife and sweet,
faithful daughters he kissed them good
night and left a fathtr'a blessing upon
them, and then he went to the berth
of a dying consumptive. Here
beautiful little Incident which closes
the charitable deeds of the last 13
years. He had heard that this young
man. with his broken-hearted wife,
were tn the chair car without money or
friends. He Immediately called the
Hillman conductor and had them oa-
slgn the berth, paying the fare for
them. Then he uttered the tost words
that I ever heard him say. Stooping
by ths berth He said: “I am sorry to
see you suffering so. I am glad that
we found you and got this comfortable
bed for you. I hope you will sleep
w-ell tonight. If you should need me
don't fall to call me. I shall bo glad to
serve you. I will see you In the morn
ing and get your transportdtlon nt
Memphis to your home at Fayette
ville." Before reaching the city he
had gone to City of God. Knowing his
sympathy for the poor, I took some of
the money that we found on Ms person
to take him home, telling him that this
completed the little act of love of
Brother Jones.
“The Noblest Spirit."
While the essential of his greatness
will b«. brought out by others,, I wish
to say that to me he was not only the
greatest orator that aver faced an
American audience, but to my heart he
was the cleanest, noblest and grandest
spirit I ever knew. I never saw him
do a small deed. I never heard him
speak an unkind word, and never heard
an uncharitable criticism. While his
conviction of right and wrong was the
strongest, his contempt for sham and
hypocrisies the keenest, and his de
termination to do the right the most
Indomitable, yet he had the kindest,
gentlest and most forgiving heart that
ever throbbed In the boeom of man.
He was as free from sensitiveness and
Jealousy as an angel. While his ora
tory was unlike other men, It will go
down In history as the cleverest and
most winsome and powerful of any
living man. While others have moved
audiences by their excited appeals, he
In a quiet, conversational style broke
men's hearts, stirred their consciences
and moved their will as no other man
has done. His wonderful Influence will
tell In ages to come. The marvelous
gifts of wit, humor and pathos were
never more fully consecrated to God
and served their purpose better than
with Mm. There never was a day that
he did not create smiles end drive away
the burdens from the hearts of hie fel-
lowmen. He started waves of laughter
that encircled our nation. From gen
eration to generation his.unique and
matchless words will he handed down
In private conversation. It will not re-
ulre the printed page to preserve
lem. They will be repeated again and
again by those that are to llvt. His
pathos was the rarest and subllmest
ever given to man. It was never more
In evidence than the last night he
preached, In which he said how he
would like to go to Heaven, If It should
be God's wllL The entire audience
wept like broken-hearted children
That night's scene will never be for
gotten.
I feel that I have lost the truest,
noblest and bast friend I ever had. To
say I loved him expresses It mildly.
God only knows how his love and In
terest tn me arid my work has helped
me and strengthened me thus far. His
memory will ever be freeh In my mind,
and 1 shall be better prepared for the
days to come "by having been with him
through "sunshine and ahowara.” May
his great mantle fall on a thousand
ministers of the gospel, and Ood grant
that those of us here today may be In
cluded In that number. God's richest,
eweeteet and best blessings be upon
hla precious wife and the children that
were dearer to hi mthan life.
