Salvationists Too Noisy

New York, 1895

The parades of the Salvation Army at Flushing are objected to by the citizens. They are described as noisy. The citizens declare that a bass drum and two cornets do not make harmony. Unless the parades are stopped some of the Salvationists may find themselves in jail. A protect has been made to the Town Board, asking that the nuisance be abated.
