Rev. Frank Hail Wright, the evan
gelist, is man whose history,
achievements, and personality might
well attract unusual attention. He is
everywhere spoken of as the Indian
Evangelist" though he is in reality
only a half indian, his father being q
full blooded Choctaw indian, and his
mother, Scotch Irish. Mr. Wrights
father was left an orphan at an early
to the indians. He became a Christian
and decided to get an education, and
graduated at Union college at Sche-
uectadv. N. y. and att Union Theological
Seminary, of New York City Just 80
years later, Frank Hall Wright, the
son graduated from these Institutions.
Mr.. Wright was converted when he
was IL years OF age. After graduation
from the seminary he preached among
the ChOctaW indians for five years,
after which he became an evangelist
and preached in New York and New
Jersey. Later he again took up work
as a missionary to the indians, this
time working among the Blanket in
dams in Oklahoma, being maintained
in that work by the Dutch Reformed
church.
But for many years now he has been
giving his time exclusively to evan
gelistic work among the English
speaking people in the northeast and
southwest.
Crowds throng his meetings where
ever he goes, and it not infrequently
becomes necessary to change to a.
larger auditorium after the meetings
have begun. A church paper recently
said of him, He is an ideal evan
gelist By him not one harsh word is
uttered, but the truth Of God is driven
home with convincing power and with
Mr. Wright is assisted IN these meet
lngs by Walter Z. Good, whose singing
IS universally admired.
