Salvation Army celebrates 140 years in Kilmarnock

The Salvation Army in Kilmarnock celebrated its 140 year anniversary on Saturday, October 22.

The Christian organisation, which began on the streets of East London in 1865, came to the town in September 1882.

At the first Kilmarnock meeting, over 100 attendees turned out to the Knee Drill, which got its name as all present were to get down on their knees, and was led by Captain Tom Kyle and Lieutenant Hughes.
