Abstract: In the south-central Michigan community of Jackson, near the banks of the Grand River, stands a commanding brick railroad depot. There, on an October afternoon in 1886, General William Booth, founder of the international Salvation Army, stepped off a westbound train for what newspapers hailed as a “jubilee” and “demonstration.”
