Autobiography Volume 1 circa 1842-1865
I spent the in paying my last visit to the Saints in London and preparing for my departure and in the evening I preached for the last time in London before my return to Nauvoo Next day I parted with ^from^ Elder Lorenzo Snow and the London Saints and took train at the Great Western Station for Bristol. I rode by rail to Wolton Basset eighty miles and then took coach 36 miles to Bath. The road was very bad Bath is the most striking place to the eye of the Traveller that I ever saw. The city extends to the summit of two high hills—Beechen Clift and Bacon Hill and fills the valley between The city is a very ancient antique looking place and very picturesquely situated I again took train at Bath to Bristol and arriving called at No 12 Redcliff Crescent Bedminster Parish where I found Elder Thomas Kington and all his household and also Elder Pitt all of whom I was glad to meet. The city of Bristol is a noted place and one of England's capital ^principal^ cities. Here I found a small branch of the Church of Latter day Saints raised up numbering thirteen souls. On Sunday though still labouring under a sever cold I preached for the first time in the city of Bristol in the afternoon and evening. I preached in the Theatre which was crowded to overflowing with persons to hear me. There was good attention paid and I felt that many souls would embrace the work in Bristol
