C.•done) Ham - bright was one of the seven colonels ; commanding the American forces at 1 th" battle of Kings Mountain which was i ne of the turning events of the Iti volution. He was severely wounded in this engagement and v.-a: lamed f * life. Frank'.- grandmother. -Suzannah Harri right Dixon, was the sole surviv ! ing child of the Revolution in South Carolina at the celebration of the j ,100th anniversary of the battle and , was given the seat of honor with Sen. ' a tor John W. Daniel, the orator of the day. She was 104 years pit! at the time * Rev. Thomas Dixon, his father,, lived to be 00, and was the builder otj 15 Baptist churches in Cleveland' i county, North Carolina. Frank was born at Shelby. the county seat on February 0th, I860. I;• September 1881 hr entered Wake Frr- , 0: t college. He was elected to mem bership in the Kappa fraternity at the] end of his freshman year and became j the presiding officer of Tau chapter . When the faculty of the institution: passed 4 resolution forbiding students, to join fraternities or maintain theim : membership ifi them, he reftued to ae-1 ! tt pt the new law, withdrew from the , college and took with him the entire i .membership of the chapter to the Uni versity of North Carolina. He gradu ated from the university In June 1886. The ill-advised crusade against fra. !ernities in American -colleges has long since been abandoned, and Tau Chapter of the Kappa Alpha has been reorganized nt Wake Forest. For two years after his gradun atjcjn he taught school in Olympia, Washington territory and in Shelby, North Carolina. At Shell,y he met and fell in love with his accomplished wife, I auna Murray < ■' West Va., at that time the head of the Music depart ment of the Cleveland Girls college. Thev were married on December, 20t.h, 1888. | He had just been ordained a Bap J list minister. His first pastorate war j at Charles Town, West Virginia, the j historic scene of Old John Brown’s ex 1 tuition. 11- was called from Charles j Toy to Oakland, California in 1880 J where he remained until 180.1. From j Oakland he was called to Hartford. | Conn. Here he worked for nearly ten i years until 1902. J He was pastor at Hartford when J | did my first novel “The Leopard’s I Spots” and felt that I should give up I j the Lyceum platform and devote my* ! self to writing. 1 sketched for Frank | the widening scope or the lecture I j field and induced him to resign the j | pastorate for the Lyceum. For the ! past twenty-two years lie has been | one of the foremost lectures of Amert | ca . . . one of our really great II modern men of the platform. He was 1 never a vaudeville entertainer. He a! ! ' ways had a message that came hot I , from a big loving heart and a beau I i tiful poised mind. He was a brilliant | and eloquent speaker. His eloquence was never cheap noise. It was the real ' thing. . . . though packed until it I took fire. 1 know of few men in America who have done more, in the past two decades for the education of our people in intelligent respon sible citizenship. He was the friend of the weak and the oppressed. Yet this friendship was based on a re. morseless passion for truth. lie hated the maudlin. He believed that the ! truth would make men free. . . and j only the truth. With his brilliant, resourceful wife he reared three fine boys and a daugh ter. He lived to sec the boys settled in life. Max and Frank Murray graduat ed from Princeton, George from Co- j lumbiu. Max is u mining engineer In Mexico.

For the first time I caught a .sight from the dark houre of life through which his .oul had passed. In the tremor of his voice I heard for a moment the echo of his own crutch heat through half ; century of brave silent struggle and I pressed his hand with a., new sympathy. Tire parsing years and successful work of his son softened the bitter ness of the tragedy and ?• Lie grew be tween them an unusually U nder bond of love and understanding. Wtiert he .arrived fr en Birmingham and bent over his father. Frank promised him j to make a harder fight to live for his : eake. He was a. gentle loving brother, a devoted husband, at. intelligent sue l cessfttl fa the r, a brave citizen. a I scholar of teal attainment and an ore | tor of unusual power. Such men are . the salt of our earth. They and their ! kind created this Republic breathed 1 into it a sou! —ard make it today a living force in the development-.of He. ! inanity.
