20 A postle to <strong>Islam</strong> Of Huguenot-Dutch Descent 21 carried away the open hearth. The scattering of the firebrands over the deck almost caused an alarm of fire. "Shortly after, all passengers were ordered below. The ship continued :
22 <strong>Apostle</strong> to Isla", In 1886, before his son's graduation, the father had accepted a call to Middleburg, Iowa, and in 1891 he returned to a church in Spring Lake, Michigan. It does not seem strange that Samuel later covered so much of the world, for his travels had begun as a boy following his peripatetic father. Samuel inherited from his father a love for tools and carpentry. The elder Zwemer generally had a shop in the shed or barn and at one time he made a complete croquet set, including the mallet and balls, for the children. For the most part, however, Samuel did not engage in sports. He was frequently found in his father's study reading books of a type far above his age 1 this often being the case when there was work to be done; he came to be known as "lazy Sam" by the other boys. Several of the children died in infancy. The oldest brother, James Frederick, had a notable career, and, among other positions, he was president of Western Theological Seminary at Holland, Michigan. Frederick James Zwemer also was a minister and a pioneer evangelist in the Dakotas. Peter ] ahn Zwemer, who \vas a year and a half younger than Samuel, folIo\ved his brother to Arabia. There "the precious cruse of his strengt.h was broken for the Master's service" after a few short years in the rocks and hills and awful heat of Muskat in the Persian Gulf. He was forced to return to America and died in the Presbyterian Hospital in New York on the eighth of October, 1898, just six weeks after his thirtieth birthday. Such was the family of Dutch pioneers who conquered the wilderness of the \Vest and sent their lines out to Arabia, that most difficult of mission fields. In the father and mother and children one can trace that faith in God and indomitable power of will which have built America and have sent the Gospel out from these shores to the far corners of the world. In late life Samuel Zwemer said, "I understood the loving fatherhood of God as Jesus taught it because of what I saw in my own father." When the son published his book on The Moslem Doctrine of God, it was dedicated to his father. He said that the entire absence of the idea of fatherhood in the Moslem doctrine turned his thoughts to his own father. The title page of the book bears the quotation: "¥et most I thank thee, not for any deed But lor the sense thy living self did breed Tha.t fa.therhood is at the great world's core."
