The revival meeting produced 366 converts over four weeks and four days with about 771.87 dollars paid to Dr. W B Riley and 270 to Harry L Maxwell. Pledges unpaid will rise to 800. Riley left for Minneapolis and Maxwell for Greencastle, with Cedar Falls pastors hoping for a revival in the city. The crowd, about 1,800, heard Riley speak on The Great Salvation as Maxwell and choirs performed The Holy City and The Anchor Song.
