Who is Jim Stakes (James Thomas) from Rees Howells: Intercessor and what is their importance?

Jim Stakes is the second person Rees is called to pray to salvation. Jim was very poor and known in the village to be a horrible drunk. Rees was called to give all he had to Jim as part of the intercession. When Rees gave Jim the money he needed to get out of trouble, the Holy Spirit came to dwell in Jim and he was changed forever. Shortly thereafter, Jim's wife would also be saved and together they began hosting prayer meetings in their home.
