Description: |
In 1921 a city wide revival was held in Indianapolis by English evangelist "Gypsy" Smith, under the guidance of a committee appointed by the Minister's Association and the Indianapolis Church Federation. The goal was to raise funds to build a tabernacle on the site of a vacant lot at Ohio and Alabama Streets. The revival lasted from March 13 to April 10 with several churches pledging donations to raise twenty thousand dollars. The revival was a success and the Cadle Tabernacle was built later that year with a dedication held in October 1921. This choir group on Monument Circle participated in the city wide revival. The original nitrate negative was copied with funds provided by a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission in 1990. This digital image was created from that copy. The copy prints and negatives are stored in Microfiche Number order. Interpositives are stored in PAN number order. |
