We took a walk in the afternoon with Doctor Copeland we
visited the largest Docks in London, we first visited
St Catherine's Dock, & after viewing the shiping &
freight of evry Description We then visited London
Dock, & among many other things we saw one of
the greatest curiosities in London or the world viz
the Eastern wine vault. This is much the largest
wine vault in the world, it is altogether under ground
& covers nine English acres the whole vault is supported
with tremendous arches & pillars, & lade of in the form
of streets, we had the streets & city overhead we walked
through the length & bredth of this vault with a guide
each one carrying a lighted lamp in his hand, this vault
was has been built 33 years. This vault alone contained
30,000 pipes of the best port wine & 6,000 pipes of
sherry & three others vaults of great magnitude filled
with the same article, besides many thousands of
pipes of wine, Brandy, Gin, & other liquors strewed thro-
ughed all the Docks wharfs & storehouses, we had a
tasting order & found the wine a good article, But
it seemed dreadful to see such vast sums of money
expended for intoxicating drinks when there are
thousands nearly starving for bread in the streets. We
left this scenery & called into a Jewish synagogue
[FIGURE] & attended a meeting of the Jews they all worship
with their hats on. We returned to our Room, I called
upon Mr Hender & he came Home with me. Soon Mr
James Albon came, & we all went to the Bath at Taber-
nacle Square, & I Baptized Mr Albon & Mr Hender, we
returned to our Room & confirmed Br Albon 10 mile

24^th we had a prayer meeting in the morning, & commun
ed with the Saints In the afternoon, confirmed one &
blessed one child, {There is some good to be done now to the [doer] for
It seemed as tho[ugh] all hell was let loose [invisibly] on me during the afternoon meeting} we took tea with Br
Albon & met a full house in the evening. Elder Kimball
preached & I followed him we had a good time & many
are believing

January 25, 1841 ~ Monday

25^th I wrote a letter to Elder Kington & one to Br
