President Albert Carrington.
Dear Brother--The Saints are feeling remarkably well, very little seasickness as yet.
Last night we called the Saints together and organized the company, by dividing it into three wards with a president over each. Suitable instructions were given on the occasion.
Elder Ralph Harrison has been appointed chaplain of the company.
The captain of the ship and all the officers are very obliging, in rendering everything as pleasant and agreeable as possible.
Please remember me kindly to Brother Bleak and all at "42." [THE MISSION ADDRESS IN LIVERPOOL WAS 42 Islington]
Your brother in the gospel,
Thomas Dobson [p.682]
