James Larkin Pearson, Poet Laureate of North Carolina in his autobiography "Poet's Progress" noted that "Ol Sol" was a mesmerizing preacher. Pearson went on to say that Solomon questioned what he was preaching after reading the writing of Pastor Charles Taze Russell.
“Ol Sol” was Solomon Darius Barnes (1846-1925), who donated the land for Little Rock Baptist Church and served as its first minister.
