Reading about these people they must have been incredibly brave. By the time they arrived in Utah, they had been robbed by the crimps and thieves in Liverpool while awaiting a ship, Death from sickness and disease and ship wreck on the ships, attacked and robbed by the Indians, death on the prairies and so on.

Excellent reading.
