. . . Starting about the 5th of March 1843 we set sail on sailing ship Yorkshire from Liverpool for New Orleans, which port was reached in about ten weeks, reaching Nauvoo on the 31st day of May following. At the landing we were met by the Prophet Joseph Smith and Apostle Brigham [p.4] Young, both of whom greeted us, the prophet referring us to Brigham for answer to questions they might wish to propound and for such advice as might be found necessary to give the company temporary homes. . . .
