ALS, 1893 May 3 : London, to Archdeacon F.W. Farrar.

Written from the International Headquarters of the Salvation Army to Archdeacon F.W. Farrar. Gives an account of the plans Booth has for the Salvation Army and its current work. "The Scheme as outlined im my book 'In Darkest England' ... may now be said to be fairly launched ... An immense amount of misery has been relieved and remedied and so far as I can judge there appears to be every prospect of the enterprise becoming a great and permanent success." He discusses his financial plight, that donations have fallen short and that his bankers are keeping the social work going until he can raise the necessary money.

3 p. ; 22.5 x 17.5 cm.
