SANKEY, WRITER
OF HYMNS, DIES
NOTED SINGER AND EVANGELIST
PASSES AWAY AT HIS HOME
IN BROOKLYN.
HIS FAME WAS WORLDWIDE.
He was SO Years Of Age and for the
Last Five Years He Had Been
Blind, but Worked on
Until His Death.

New York. Aug. i5.--Ira d. Sankey,
known as an evangelist throughout
the Christian world. died Thursday
night at his home In Brooklyn, but the
news Of his passing did not become
generally known until Friday. Mr..
Sankey was 6S years old. For the
last FIVE years he had been blind and
diseases brought on by overwork. But
almost to the very last he worked at
hymn writing. His tours throughout
this country and Europe with Dwight
l.. Moody the evangelist, brought him
into wide prominence.
Sankey, 1t might be said, wrote the
gospel hymns Of the world. In China.
Egypt, India. Japan, in almost every
language known to man, Sankey's
hymns are sung. He received large
income from his publications and
leaves a considerable estate. Among
Mr.. Sankey's most familiar compost
tions are "The Ninety and Nine" and
when the Mists Have Rolled Away"
His songs are said TO have had a cir
culation of more than 5O,0O0,000
copies.
He was rapid composer and wrote
book after book Of gospel hymns. Dur
ing the last five or six years OF his
life he was interested In preparing
and publishing the story of the gospel
hymns. At the same time he saved
his wonderful voice for posterity by
singing into monographs. The rec.
ords we're sent all over the world.
Sankey fret met Moody at Y. NJ
c. A. convention at Indianapolis
Moody was so charmed with the young
mans voice that he urged him to ac-
company him on his evangelical tour
Sankey explained that he was mar
iled and that he could not give up his
position. You must come. ! cannot
get along without you" Sankey con-
suited his wife and they cast their lot
with Mr. Moody. They visited Great
Britain from 1873 to 1875. and again
in 1883. and made many tours
throughout the United States.
When Mr.. Moody died, Mr.. Sankey
ltll httnlg lHf lOSb ol ulh lTleHus
From that time he tried TO conduct
the work alone which they had hither-
to shared between them. but the task
was too great. In 1902 his physical
condition compelled him TO give up
most of his evangelical engagements,
although he continued for some time
TO compile new series OF hymn books.
Then came falling eyesight. which
speedily developed into total blind.
ness. With the blindness came also
nervous breakdown. After his retire,
ment from public life the impression
became general throughout the coun.
try that he was dead.
Mr.. Sankey lived in Brooklyn for
27 years, and II was there that most
of his songs werc written. He was
singer from boyhood, and his voice at.
tracted attention in the hamlet of
Edenburg, Pa, where he was born
August rs, 1910. At the beginning
Of his active llfo Mr.. Sankey was
Methodist. but for the last seven
years he had been Presbyterian. He
Is survived by a widow. Fannie ".
Sankey, two sons and two grand.
children.
