Mormon Immigration 1

[brian daley]

I am attempting to post an extract from a Journal about the " Voyage of the Ellen Maria" in 1853. The extract was given to me by the great ,great grandson of the author ,with the express wish that I post it here. I am a rookie at this sort of thing so this will be my first attempt at posting actual documents, any advice will be extremely welcome as I don't know anything about DOS or whatever. I feel sure that you will enjoy it because it covers the little known subject of Mormon Emigration from Liverpool to the United States. Look forward to your help in this endeavour,
BrianD

Always thought it was the Mormons that came over here Brian. Can't help you I'm afraid, if I had to post it I woulda gone to the post box.

I went to Salt Lake City. It's a lovely place. Alas it was dry...

No alcohol, I never went back...

Hi Brian,
I clicked on your thumb nail. to enlarge as usual, Then I clicked again on the ENLARGED thumb nail and another page opened up with it in, then click on `VIEW`, CLICK ON `ZOOM`, then CLICK on 200% to increase and it is normal size print, EASY TO READ.
VOILA.!!!

I spent about 2 to 3 months there. It isn't dry. Bars are few on the ground though. We found them.

I was there in the early eighties. I might be wrong, but I don't remember a single bar.
