I know he died in Saskatchewan in the 1960s. He would preach fiery sermons against "worldly preachers". One time a heckler was disrupting his gospel meeting and he quoted a verse about the wringing of the nose brings blood or something like that.

Proverbs 30:33 New International Version For as churning cream produces butter, and as twisting the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife."
New Living Translation As the beating of cream yields butter and striking the nose causes bleeding, so stirring up anger causes quarrels.

Gill, What do you mean by the use of the phrase, "Charlie Mitchell-Throwback Thursday worker?"

I like to focus on a past worker on Thursday. Throwback Thursday. My mom loved to hear Charlie Mitchell because he could get a crowd laughing. She used to tell some Charlie Mitchell jokes. His attacks on clergy didn't make him very popular though.

His attacks on clergy didn't make him very popular though. I was around Charlie a lot in my younger days. He didn't harp on other churches much. Fact is he had an old black man professing in his meetings. Well, Tooney died and his wife and children never had anything to do with us, but they asked that Charlie have a word in Tooneys funeral. After Charlie spoke, the other minister spoke also and pretty well echoed everything Charlie said. We had same thing happen with Harry Brownlee at a professing lady's funeral but her sisters minister had the funeral but graciously asked Harry to have a word, then the other minister just echoed nearly everything Harry had said. About Charlie, we had a worker who worked very diligently in gospel mtgs but he was impossible for his companions to get a long with. So Charlie Mitchell and Harold Hollingsworth would take turns every other year with Will is as their companion. Poor ok'd Willis probably knew not to give either overseer problems. But Willis usually got converts

I could see Harry Brownlee being restrained at funeral. I heard about the workers wanting to rent a place and they were asked about Charlie Mitchell. He was an interesting man.
