". . . Another company of Scandinavian Saints (292 souls) sailed from Copenhagen Aug. 28, 1882, by the steamer 'Argo,' under the direction of Elder Hans J. Christiansen and five other returning missionaries, viz., Carl H. Lundberg, Anders G. Johnson, Rasmus Berntzon, Charles Samuelson and Christian Hansen. After a stormy and unpleasant voyage the 'Argo' arrived at Hull, England, and in the afternoon the emigrants were conveyed by railway to Liverpool. There they embarked at once on the steamer 'Wyoming' and sailed on Sept. 2nd, together with emigrating Saints from other parts of Europe. The company thus augmented consisted of 298 British, 287 Scandinavian and 54 Swiss and German Saints, besides 16 returning missionaries and seven returning Utah visitors -- altogether 662 souls. When the Scandinavians left Copenhagen their number was 292, but a Swedish sister and her children were left in Liverpool, on account of sickness. After a successful voyage the 'Wyoming' arrived in New York Sept. 12th, and the next day (Sept. 13th) the company proceeded westward by railroad to Utah, under the leadership of Elder William Cooper and arrived in Ogden and Salt Lake City, Nov. 10, 1882. . . ."
