Booth declines Butte visit as Volunteers of America grow
Ballington Booth explains he will not include Butte in his itinerary due to small local support. He cites rapid growth of the Volunteers of America nationwide with millions attending meetings and open air services, and outlines four main philanthropic branches including housing for destitute men, Homes of Mercy for young women, Volunteer tenement work, and the Prison league aiding released inmates.
