Graduating from Andover Theological Seminary in 1843, Salter and his companions the so called "Iowa Band" went West to Iowa when it was only a territory to organize congregations, build churches and battle sin in all its infinite varieties. They were the single most distinguished Protestant group of their time, and Salter, through the years, emerged superior to them all, according to biographer Philip Jordan.
