to Brothr Kimball it was truly interesting & contaned
much information. Elder Turley arived in Nauvoo
about the 25th Nov with 109 Saints the Rest stoped in Kirtland. Sister Kimball says she has had many good
[page torn] [se]asons with the English Sisters sincee they arived she
says they all feel well that she has seen Sister Elizabeth
Ravenscroft makes it her home with Sister Kimball & is
well, Happy, & contented. She sends a great deal of love
to you & says tell Brother Smith that his trunk was
sent safe to his fathrs but has not seen them since
they got it all our things arivd safe. Sister Kimball
has got all the things which I sent to my wife
for I think I told you before Phebe had gone
to Maine untill I Return. She did not tell
who stoped at Kirtland. Sister Kimball says she
has just herd of the death of Her Father Merry
& among othr things she says the Saints have named
their Steem Boat Nauvoo & the last trip it
made Brothr Joseph went up with it & who should
come Back with him But John Boynton & Lyman Johnson
& John Boynton Wife they made it their home with Joseph
while in Nauvoo they have bought tools & are going to
Build & settle in Nauvoo & Joseph seemed pleased
at having his old friends around him once more they
seem to be bulding up & prospering there at the present
time Joseph says he is going to have all his old friends
around him again.
