The steamship Wisconsin sailed from Liverpool, England, with the first company of this season's emigration of European Saints, numbering 52 souls, including nine returning elders, in charge of Orson H. Worthington. They arrived in New York on the 24th, and reached Salt Lake City May 7th."

Diary of Thomas E. Ricks

. . . arrived in Liverpool about 5 o'clock. Found among the many elders there, Brother Hyrum whom I had not seen for nearly 4 years. We had a good visit together. He went down to Alexander Docks, went onto the Wisconsin, slept or stayed overnight on board ship and we enjoyed our visit.

Saturday, 19 - Had a good breakfast. About half past 10 o'clock we commenced to move out on our journey for home, there being 9 returning elders and 43 Saints bound for Zion. All seemed very happy and well satisfied, the channel being very smooth.

Sunday, 20 - Arrived at Queenstown about 9 a.m. Stood in the harbor and viewed the beautiful scenery around. Posted our returning mail. More passengers came on board, about 85, making the number of passengers on board between 695 and 700. Started out from Queenstown about 12 o'clock noon. Many began to [p. 207] feed the fish and go to bed for to try to get some ease. Only 3, three of us elders ate any supper. Some was very sick. The captain of the Wisconsin, name is John P. Warrall, a very nice man he is. I went to bed feeling quite shaky.

Monday, 21 - Got up very early and feeling still shaky and uneasy. Visited around the brethren. Found 7 out of 9 quite sick and only Brother T. [Thomas] B. Davis and myself was at breakfast table. We eat hearty. The balance remained poorly all day. Brother Dan and I visited amongst the Saints. Found the most of them sick. We had a very rough sea all day. Towards evening it began to rain hard and the wind began to abate.

Tuesday, 22 - Still we had a very strong head wind which kept up all day. The brethren all seemed better all being to get out on deck except Brother Snarre [Dan H. Snarr]. Still none of them seemed to be able to keep food down. [P. 208][ON TOP OF PAGE IS WRITTEN, Wednesday, 23, 1890] during the changed [wind] to our back [UNCLEAR] and when I got up the rain began to pour down and kept on until noon. I helped Brother Snarre [Dan H. Snarr] up on deck, then all the 9 elders were up, and trying to make us believe they were not sick [as] you yet they could not come up to the table and eat at a hearty meal.

Thursday, 24 - We had a very rough sea all day and head wind.

Friday, 25 - Still rough and lots of sickness. Towards evening we saw 4, four, large ice mountains, 1 miles long. I slipped and slid from one side of the room to the other and hurt my leg very bed. Went to bed.

Saturday, 26 - Got up. Could scarcely get up on deck on account of my leg. The wind still hard against us all day. [p. 209]

Sunday, 27, 1890 - Nice clear morning but still a strong, cold head wind. We held meeting on deck at 3 o'clock p.m. Several of the elders spoke. The wind continued all day.

Monday, 28 - Still heavy head wind. Lasted all day. Again made 274 miles.

Tuesday, 29 - The wind had changed during the night and the weather had got much warmer to a wind in our favor and a very pleasant day, many being able to be out on deck.

Wednesday, 30 - Nice and warm but foggy. The fog horn a tooting off and on all day. The pilot came aboard about 1:30 p.m.

May 1, 1890 - Got up and could see land called Long Island. Distance from Liverpool to New York [LIST OF NUMBERS ARE WRITTEN IN RIGHT HAND COLUMN, BUT NOT TALLIED THE NUMBERS ARE AS FOLLOWS: 229, 215, 256, 264, 292, 254, 226, 216, 262, 310, 289]. Second day we arrived at New York about 1 p.m. and passed the custom house. [p. 210] All ok. Went to Castle Garden. All passed examination. Took ship again for Norfolk about 5 p.m. I was very tired as my leg is still very sore. I went to bed early. The ship's name is the "Roanoke." We had the best of treatment all the way on the water from the officers.

May 2, 1890 - We moved along nicely. Arrived at Portsmouth at 1 p.m. Remained. [p. 211] [ABRUPT END OF ACCOUNT]

Letter from Orson H. Worthington - April 20, 1890

Queenstown, April 20, 1890.

President George Teasdale:

Dear Brother,

--We arrived here at 8:45 this morning all well. There are fifty-two Saints on board, including nine returning elders, besides about 550 other passengers, making about 602 in all. Our organization has been completed and all seem to be enjoying themselves. Little seasickness has been experienced so far. The hours appointed for prayer are 9:30 a.m. and 8 p.m., when some of the elders meet with the steerage passengers and others with the intermediate. A pleasant hour was spent last evening in singing the songs of Zion in which many of the passengers joined heartily.

The officers of the ship are very courteous. The captain has kindly offered us the privilege of holding service on deck this afternoon, and we intend to accept it. We expect to leave here about 12:30 p.m.

With love to all at "42." [42 Islington WAS THE ADDRESS OF THE BRITISH MISSION IN LIVERPOOL] We remain your brethren,

Letter from Orson H. Worthington - May 1, 1890

S. S. "Roanoke" 9 p.m., May 1, 1890.President George Teasdale.

Dear Brother:

--Our hearts are filled with gratitude to our Heavenly Father for his protecting care that has attended another company of his covenant people thus far upon their journey to the gathering place of Israel in the latter days.

We sailed from Queenstown per S. S.Wisconsin, at about noon on Sunday, the 20th ultimo, encountering very rough sea and head winds until the following Wednesday, when an agreeable change for the better was enjoyed for a few hours; but on Thursday morning the wind again changed and blew fiercely, causing the ship to roll and the waves to splash over the deck, and another [p.315] siege of seasickness ensued similar to the first few days of our voyage.

Head winds and rough sea were our lot afterwards until last Tuesday, since when the sea was smooth, the wind favorable, the weather warm and pleasant, and all on board highly enjoyed so favorable a change.

At about 6 p.m. on Friday, the 25th ultimo, we passed four large icebergs, one of which was about one-and-a-half miles in length.

At about 6:30 this morning we came in sight of Long Island Beach, and at 1 o'clock we were safely landed in New York, where we were met by Mr. Gibson, and Mr. J. F. Wiley, passenger agent of the Union Pacific Railway, also L. J. Ellis, General Eastern passenger agent, who rendered us much assistance in the transfer of our company.

After the inspection of our luggage by the custom house officers at the Guion Line pier, we took steamer for the Old Dominion Dock, calling at Castle Garden, where we passed the commissioners, exchanged our English money for U. S. currency, and embarked on board the S. S. "Roanoke," of the Old Dominion Line, for Norfolk, at about 5 o'clock this afternoon.

Satisfactory arrangements were made for procuring tickets for the company through to their respective destinations.

We expect to arrive at Norfolk at about 5 p.m. tomorrow, and leave there at 10 o'clock tomorrow night, traveling via Memphis, Chattanooga, and Kansas City.

A letter expressing our appreciation of the extreme courtesy shown our people by the officers of the S. S. Wisconsin was presented to Captain John P. Worrall, and was duly acknowledged.

Plymouth Harbor, 3 p.m., May 2, 1890.

Have just arrived here, all well, after an exceedingly pleasant trip down the coast. We remain here about two hours, and then cross the bay to Norfolk, about one and a half miles distant. We have been treated with the utmost courtesy, and rendered every possible assistance by all concerned thus far.

Our time being so limited at New York, and so much business to attend to, we were unable to write to you from there.

With love to all at "42," [42 Islington WAS THE ADDRESS OF THE BRITISH MISSION IN LIVERPOOL] we remain your brethren,

O. [Orson] H. Worthington,E. A. Cottrell,D. [Dan] H. Snarr,T. [Thomas] E. Bassett, Secretary. [p.316] BIB: Worthington, Orson, H., et. al.,[Letter] Latter-day Saints ' Millennial Star 52:20, (May 19, 1890) pp. 315-16. (CHL)
