Mr. Bryrin was asked to teach the clas^and readily responded. When it was announced that Mr. I^ryan would conduct the class, peo ple flocked to the church, which soon was ing^equate for the large gather ings. Permission was granted by the city commissioners to conduct the class in the Royal Palm park and each season since from December 1 to May this famous class every Sunday morn ing is held. It has been estimated at various times that the average attendance of this class was more thair 4,000 per sons. As many as 8,000 persons have filled the park to hear the great Com moner. The Rev. Willis O. Gannett; pastor of the First Presbyterian .church, stated tonight that Mr. Bryant influ ence through this class was greater th&n that of any minister in Miami. “The audience consisted of a certain element of people that had not been accustomed to attend church.^ True, it was said that the majority of^the audience were members but the other element was also attracted Op the class,” Mr. Garrett said. P That the accumulation of wealth by these means became a problemTto Mr. Bryan had been revealed at various times. ‘ r ' - The Rev. Mr. Garrett, who was in timately acquainted with Mr. Bryan, tells of a visit of the Commoner in his study last year. Mr. Bryan spoke confidentially- la Garrett in re gard to his wealth, and it was evident that he treated the subject as a weighty problem. According to Mr. Garrett, Mr. Bryan explained that he came to Miami to retiro, that! he bought what waa then a piece of modest priced pro perty and that he built himself a mod- enjoyed. Miami Minister Tells of Great Influ ence. Reached Thousands in ' Tourist Bible Class. Miami, Fla., July 26.—William Jen nings Bryan first became interested in Florida affairs 25 ye^fs' ago when he visited the state during the Demo cratic state convention in which his cousin, W. S. Jennings, was nominat ed for governor of the state. He toured the state with Mr. Jen nings extensively and made a num ber of public appearances during the trip. He did not, however, go direct ly in the interest of his cousin, and his speeches contained no reference to the political campaign. His pres ence with Mr. Jennings on the trip, hoover, had a psychological effect. . During Mr. Jennings’ term as gov ernor Mr. Bryan frequently visited Tallahassee and spoke before the leg islature. As a colonel in the Spanish^ American war he was stationed in Jacksonville and his presence there further cemented him to the state. r Mr. Bryan made his first visit to Miami about 15 years ago. Shortly after his first visit, he bought what was then a modest priced property and built the Villa Serena, which be came his winter home for many years after. Thousands of visitors have visited the home. The place was always open to the public, the gates were never closed and it was the mecca of sight seers. Mr. Bryan disposed of thi: beautiful home last year and purchas ed a more modest home, in Cocobnut Grove, a suburb of Miami. ‘ ' 'One of the distinctive features of life in Miami is' the tourist Bible class of the First Presbyterian church, which is taught by Mr^ Bryan. This , . class was firstjjegun In-1916 and .was, M 1 "’ Bryan might est home. The property increased in > value. The question that confronted him was whether he should continue to live in his home or seek more humble quar ters. Mr. Bryan did J dispose of the Villa Serena and purchased a more moderate hofee^in the suburbs of the city, Mr. Garrett said. “He had spoken to me various times about retiring from pyblic work. He wanted to write his memoirs, he said. Mr. Bryan could not detach himself from the people. Always a servant of the masses, he came to the point where he became their slave. “I think it extremely unfortunate that Mr. Bryan should pass from the world before he wrote his memoirs. He had a brilliant mind and a bril liant memory, and the memoirs that he would have written weuld have been of priceless value to the present and coming generations. / “I spoke to him a short time before he lift for Dayton, Tenn. He real ised the storm that would result at the ensuing trial but said that he went there to defend the Bible for the people and to win souls for Christ. .1 “Mr. Bryan was a ruling elder of the First Presbyterian church. He was elected to that office five years ago. Suspending prevailing rules, the congregation made him a ruling elder for life, not merely to honor him but because of his relationship to the Presbyterian church and the cause for religion throughout the country.” J. L. Billingsly, Miami attorney, was perhaps more intimately ac quainted with Mr. Bryan than any other Miamian. Their friendship ex tended back many years. Dr. Billingsley is critically ill at his home. Relatives feared that the news cause a setback. Mr. Billingsley nud been ’intimately associated with Mr. Bryan during his residence in Miami.
