left that city without giving his des-
tination. 1t is believed that he became
suddenly Ill and had started for his

in Cartersville, Ga, in 1859. and after

legiate course on account Of feeble
health.
Liquor Causes Downfall.
He was admitted to the bar in 1869,
his private and professional lives were
both failures because of his passion
for drink.
Becomes Converted and breaches.
After his fathers death, in 1872, he
made a profession Of religion, and in
one week from that time preached his
first sermon, entering the North Geor-
gia annual conference Of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church (South) in the
same year.
breaches 400 Sermons Year.
From the first his success as re-
vivalist was remarkable. He was fre-
quently called to other places, preach-
ing during the first eight years of his
ministry about 400 sermons a year.

In 1881 he was appointed agent of
the Decatur Orphans Home, and since
that time has given his services to re-
vival work in the large cities of the
United States.
