Our voyage from Oregon was rough, but I was not so sick as on my former passage. This boat, the “Idaho,” did not pitch, but rolled. We were treated very kindly on the boat. We made many pleasant acquaintances and distributed our publications to different ones, which led to profitable conversation. When we arrived at Oakland we found that the tent was pitched there and that quite a number had embraced the truth under the labors of Brother Healey. We spoke several times under the tent. Sabbath and first day the churches of San Francisco and Oakland met together, and we had interesting and profitable meetings. {4T 295.3}

Vor rejse fra Oregon var ujævn, men jeg blev ikke syg som ved min tidligere rejse. Denne båd "Idaho" slog sig ikke, men rullede. Vi blev behandlet meget venligt på båden. Vi gjorde mange gode bekendtskaber og uddelte vore blade til forskellige, som førte til nyttige samtaler. Da vi kom til Oakland fandt vi at teltet var rejst der og at ganske mange havde grebet sandheden under bror Healeys arbejde. Vi talte adskillige gange under teltet. Om sabbaten og på den første dag mødtes menighederne i San Francisco og Oakland og vi havde interessante og udbytterige møder.
