Read More	Scott, Reuben Uncle Reuben Scott, as he was familiarly known for many miles around Old Rock Spring, in Northern Tennessee, was called to his reward on April 17, 1910. His life was a very interesting and encouraging one to all Christians who knew him. He gave himself early (at the age of fifteen) to the Master and ever afterwards valiantly carried the banner of his Leader. He began to labor publicly at about twenty years of age and continued to preach at home and in all the surrounding country around old Rock Spring till called home. He was eighty-four years old at the time of his death. He was ordained as an elder in October, 1875, and filled this important place till his death. Uncle Reuben was an everyday Christian, one of those blessed old landmarks in the kingdom, always contending for the faith, as immovable as Gods truth on which he always firmly stood. He was always satisfied with the beautiful gospel story in its simplicity, and would accept or indorse none other. His earnest life of consecration and devotion to the Masters cause and his sixty-nine years of faithful service in the same should be very encouraging to all to live more nearly like the Master. Blessed old brother! How I love to recall the days gone by when he so patiently taught us the way of truth and holiness at old Rock Spring! But his labors are ended, his work is done, and well done; let us see to ours that we, too, may end our course faithfully. May the Lord help us all to live so as to meet Brother Scott, with all the redeemed and faithful of every age and clime. John H. Arms., Celina, Tenn. Gospel Advocate, August 11, 1910, page 931.
