Samuel Minot Jones PDF Download

Excerpt from Samuel Minot Jones: The Story of an Amherst Boy Amherst, mother of men, has had many children, soldiers and scholars, readers and writers, tillers of the soil and master craftsmen, adventurers and missionaries of the cross: but no one of these has been more grateful, or shown his gratitude in a more fitting manner, than Samuel Minot Jones. He received both from his father and from his mother those traits of New England character, developed in a long line of ancestors, physical strength and intellectual vigor, magnanimity of soul and decision of character, industry and perseverance, public spirit and patriotism, morality and religious faith, which he so utilized as to make himself always the man for the emergency, a brave soldier, a pioneer in unbeaten paths, a successful business man, a loving son, brother, husband, father and friend, and a public benefactor.
