Billy Sunday in Boston Prompts Evangelistic Surge
Billy Sunday arrives in Boston to launch a major evangelistic campaign, drawing praise from Baptists and stirring both support and skepticism among ministers. The tabernacle, on Huntington Avenue, seats fourteen thousand and drew over fifty thousand on opening day, with many turned away. Sunday’s operations involve hundreds of volunteers from some three hundred churches, marking Boston’s most ambitious religious movement in memory.
