Worth-Give-Leave Million Dollars

Mr. W. R. Spight, wholesale grocer of Decatur, Ala., passed away. Shortly after his departure the trusteeship of the Spight estate came into being. Representatives of the eight beneficiaries of the estate met, reviewed the activities of the trustees, and found that out of an original estate worth a million dollars, the beneficiaries have received $1,040,000 and there is still an approximate million’s worth left in the estate. A friend who knew Mr. Spight said that he gave $500 to the Lord every Sunday of the year, while he lived.

To be worth a million, and give a million, and leave a million to be given away is a record. Only eternity will reveal the vast amount of good accomplished by the million given, and the million now being given! Money simply cannot be put to a higher use than that of honoring the Lord.
