"ZIONWARD. -- One of the largest companies of the Saints that have ever set sail from this or any other port, left Liverpool for New York on Wednesday, the 2nd instant, in the steamship Wisconsin, Captain T. W. Freeman. This is the second company of emigrants this season who have left their native lands for Utah, and number 104 English and 872 Scandinavians, making a total of 976 souls. The Saints are in the charge of Elder David O. Calder, who is assisted by Elders K. Petersen, S. S. Jones, P. F. Madsen and Paul Dehlin. These brethren are returning home, to Utah, after having faithfully and diligently performed their missions in Europe. Elders Calder and Jones arrived in this country a year ago, the former laboring in Scotland and the latter principally in the Sheffield Conference. Elder Petersen arrived here two years ago, and has presided over the Scandinavian Mission during the period. Elder Madsen has labored in the same Mission for three years past, while Elder Dehlin has labored two years there. Brother Calder's son, David G., who accompanied his father on his mission, returns also with this company. May the Lord bless and prosper all on board, and land them safely at their destination."

". . . A company of Scandinavian Saints emigrating to Zion (870 souls) sailed from Copenhagen on the steamers 'Pacific' and 'Milo' June 27, 1873, Apostle Erastus Snow,
President Canute Peterson and Elders Peter F. Madsen and Paul Dehlin returned to their homes in Zion with this company of emigrants. The 'Pacific,' which left Copenhagen at 12:30 p.m. and on which Apostle Snow had charge of the Saints, arrived at Hull,
England, on the 30th, at 8:30 p.m. A child was born on this voyage. The same day the company went by train to Liverpool, where they immediately embarked on the steamship 'Wisconsin.' The 'Milo,' on which Elder Canute Peterson had charge of the Saints, left Copenhagen three hours later than the 'Pacific' and arrived at Hull on the 1st day of July, 24 hours later than the other ship. At 9 p.m. this company arrived in Liverpool and also embarked on the ocean steamer 'Wisconsin' which sailed from Liverpool July 2nd with 976 souls on board, in charge of Elder David O. Calder, assisted by Elders Canute Peterson, Peter F. Madsen, S. S. Jones and Paul Dehlin. Of the emigrants 104 were English. After a successful voyage the 'Wisconsin' arrived safely in New York, July 15th. The number of the passengers had increased, one child being born on board, and decreased by the loss of two, as a Brother Knud Mortensen was missed at Liverpool and a child was killed by accident. From New York the journey westward was resumed by railway, and the company arrived in Salt Lake City on July 24th. . . ."
