I essteem it a pleasure
to spend a few moments in conversing with you by
letter. I have had rather of a slow journey from Nauvoo to
Liverpool but have arived at last. came into dock on the
4thinst had a rough voyage some heavy gales but got along
without any difficulty we were most of us sea sick a nu[m]ber
of days. we had a voyage of 25 days was 5 days in the Channel
But we are all well & lastly our babe is well & rugged. we have
been here but few days, & have hardly got settelled. I have
not yet been able to comprehend things at the Office but
as far as I know things have been conducted right. the
saints appear to have ^full^ confidence in Br Hadlock. I have
not had much time as yet with them, as they are very busy
fitting out a ship. As near as I can learn the work
is doing well through this country generally considering
the small number of American Elders in the Vineyard
the work is prosperous in London under the Labour of Eldr Davis. Straten is doing well in the Lverpool conference &
Elder Holmes& Has gone to Manchestercon & Hardy for a
little time Elder Sheets over Bradfordcon. As soon as
I understand & comprehend affairs at Liverpool I shall visit the
various conferences. their is I believe a universal feeling of
union in supporting the Twelve for they know no othr authority
neither do they wish to, as being over them. I shall write you
from time to time as I have matters of interest to communicate.
I have written to Elder Taylor upon one subject that I wish
you would try to put a stop to for the good of the cause
