Summary

Description
English: Bethel riverboat - Reverse reads: "Brats - Union Bethel- Floating Bethel, Cincinnati Ohio." This is an artist's rendering of "Floating Bethel." In 1894 a preacher built a chapel and living quarters on a small barge. He floated down river from Pittsburgh to Moundsville, West Virginia, using singers on the barge to attract attention to his preaching. The Floating Bethel burned down in 1898. This picture is a highly idealized rendering of the Floating Bethel. In reality, it was a small hut built on a barge.
