"DEPARTURES. . . . The ship Henry Ellis, Captain Phillips, was also expected to leave the same port on or about the 28th of March, for New York, with about thirty souls of the Saints on board, under the care of Elder John Stock. We are happy to hear of the Saints gathering from the distant portions of our globe, and trust that they will have a pleasant and prosperous voyage and a safe arrival at New York, and pray that the blessings of the Lord may be round about them and that his Spirit may dwell in their bosoms, not only while journeying to Zion, but that it may abide with them during the whole of their future lives."
MS, 25:20 (May 16, 1863), p.315
