Great Humanitarian Russell Conwell Remembered In Tributes
The Waco Times Herald relays tributes to Russell H. Conwell, famed Acres of Diamonds speaker. Born in Massachusetts, he rose from Yale studies to a life of 16 hours daily toil after a soldier King’s sacrifice inspired his conversion. He led Philadelphia’s First Baptist Church and financed a major university and hospital, earning millions from lectures. The Kaufman Herald notes towns like Forney cannot support two papers, reflecting on local journalism.
