Pastor Relates Intimate Inicdents To Show Wide Influence
For Good And Calls Attention To Wholehearted Work
To Enlarge Kingdom Of Christ. Worked In Unique But
Thoroughly Busines-Like Manner.
By REV. GEORGE R. STUART, D. D.
In the passing of W. H. Stockham
to his rich re-ward .the country at
large, the state of Alabama, the city
of Birmingham and the Christian
church have lost a supreme man.
He was a man of technical culture
and broadly read. He was grad
uated at the University of Illinois
and kept In touch with books, current
literature and the lecture and musical
platform. He was clean In thought
and speech, refined in manner, modest
and retiring until the moment came
to take a stand aim then he mani
fested the “holy boldness'1 of genu
ine Christian heroism.
