• Notes

  He was a brilliant and impressive preacher.  His appearance in the pulpit, preaching to vast throngs of soldiers, will never fade from the writer's memory.  By many he was regarded as equal to his brother Moses, and by some as his superior... He was blessed with fine physical endowments, with a voice of unusual compass and power. The Family of Hoge – 1927 Who Was Who states he had six children.
