S. S. Manhattan, off Queenstown,Dec. 5, 1872.President A. [Albert] Carrington.
Dear Brother - With the exception of a little seasickness we are all well, and our little company are in good spirits.
The weather has been so hazy that we could not make communication with Queenstown till 4 p.m. today.
We all rejoice at being on our way to the gathering place of God's people.
I shall write from New York. We desire to be remembered in your prayers, that we may arrive in peace and safety at our desired haven.
Yours faithfully,
Daniel Kennedy. [p.793]
