DEATH OF IRA D. SANKEY.
New York, August 16. Obituary.—lra D. Sankey, the American Evangelist.
[lra David Sankey was born in 1840. In 1870 he met Dwight L. Moody, and they became associated in evangelistic work, continuing together for many years. They visited Great Britain in 1873 to 1875, and again in 1883, and made many tours throughout the United States. In these meetings Sankey had charge of the singing. After severing his connection with Moody, he frequently conducted meetings alone. His compilations of devotional music, containing many of his own compositions, are Gospel Hymns, Sacred Songs, and Sacred Songs and Solos.]
