[5547] Samuel Rutherford, son of Williams and Julia Frances Rutherford,was born near Culloden, Crawford County, Georgia at the family farm"Lochwood" on 15 March 1870. On 14 December 1897 he married AbigailElizabeth Ponder, daughter of James Monroe Ponder and Ella Ensign Ponder.Abbie was born 22 September 1877 in Forsyth, Georgia and died 3 March1946 in Forsyth. Samuel Rutherford received his early education in the publicschools of Culloden, Georgia and then attended Washington and LeeUniversity. He was graduated from the University of Georgia at Athensin 1894 with al LL.B degree. He immediately began the practice of law inForsyth, Georgia. He was three times elected mayor of Forsyth andserved as county attorney two years. He served as a member of the lower house of the state legislature in1896-1897, and as a state senator from the 22nd district in 1909-1910.In 1921 he was again sent to the state legislature and served until1924. He was then elected to represent the 6th congressional district inthe United States Congress, and was re-elected until his death removedhim from that office. He served in the 69th, 70th, and 71st Congresses.His legislative record was one of fairness, public-spirited service tohis constituents, and distinguished accomplishments. A staunch Democratin his political alignment, Samuel Rutherford consistently supported hisparty, its policies, and its principles. The public services of Sam Rutherford extended into many branches oflife in the United States. During World War I he served as foodadministrator for the 6th District of Georgia. In the Free and AcceptedMasons he was also active, having been a member of the Blue Lodge. Hischurch was the Baptist, which he regularly attended and in which he was adeacon. When the Democratic party obtained a majority in the 71stCongress his work increased at the expense of his health. One of hislast activities was the conducting of hearings before the electionscommittee regarding the possibility of legislation to abolish the "Lameduck" sessions of Congress. Mr. Rutherford brought numerous benefits to the groups with which hewas associated, proving himself a civic-minded citizen of the highestorder. In the periods when he was not engaged in the handling theaffairs of the different public offices that he held, he was busy withthe law, his first profession, or with different banking activities inwhich he became interested. He gave liberally at all times to charitablecauses of worth, contributing particularly to the Negro race and to thesocial work carried on by his church. He was devoted, first of all,however, to home and family and those branches of life of a moreinspirational nature that were always associated, in his mind, withdomestic happiness. From the home inspiration radiated through alldepartments of his life. A History of Georgia had this to say concerning Samuel Rutherford: "His ability, energy and integrity were quickly recognized by his fellowcitizens and success has crowned his efforts from the commencement of hisprofessional career, he having been connected as counsel with most of theimportant litigation in the local courts for years. He is a keen andsagacious analyst, a sound and sage advisor, and in the trial of causesis worthy of any foeman's steel, while as a pleader he is forceful andconvincing, logical and earnest. In addition to his professionalinterests, Mr. Rutherford is identified with commercial and financialaffairs; owns and operates a large and well improved plantation; wasvice-president of the First National Bank of Forsyth from 1902 to 1916;and was for a time a director of the Fourth National Bank of Macon,Georgia" Samuel Rutherford died on 4 February 1932 of a heart attack whileshaving at his apartment in Washington, D. C.
