November 2, 1913 to December 14, 1913 - The Famous Billy Sunday's Revival Campaign in Johnstown


These two pictures show different angles of the same area. That odd building on the left hand side tucked next to where Point Stadium is now -along the river -  was the temporary - Turtle-Back Tabernacle built on Johns Street. 
The Turtle-Back is seen from behind the parked cars. Over on the left hand side - about half way up the hillside is Rolling Mill Mine.
The multi-week revival led to thousands of conversions, and helped create the YWCA in Johnstown.
