. . . On 9 August 1871 my oldest sister, Sarah, and I set sail from Liverpool for Utah. My oldest brother John C. and sisters Fanny and Jane had preceded several years before, and were in Utah. We embarked on the ship Minnesota and were fourteen days on the ocean. When we arrived at New York we were met by father's cousin, Thomas Paskett. He took us to his home, treated us fine and gave us a good dinner, but tried to persuade us not to go to Utah with those Mormons. We left there and after traveling seven days on the train we reached Echo Station in Summit County 31 August 1871. We were met by my brother John, William C. Betteridge, a friend of my sister Sarah's, and George Judd, a brother-in-law. We were conveyed to Henefer, Summit County, about four miles. . . . [p.63]
