Graham says Madison Square Garden meetings draw broad city cross section
In Madison Square Garden crowds Graham describes as a cross section of the city attendees range from teenagers and society figures to professionals and laborers. He notes three times as many participants as in any prior crusade in the United States while citing a report from Hunt forward and a note about a State Fire Marshal’s wife connected to Huntington.
