Performance NotesThis was the last public appearance of William Booth.

The highlight of the evening was William Booth's address to the audience:
"While women weep, as they do now, I'll fight; while men go to prison ... while there is a drunkard left, while there is a poor lost girl upon the streets, while there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I'll fight - I'll fight to the very end!"
