Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 85: February 15, 1923 When I was about sixteen years of age I became possessed of a very strong desire to see other countries. My mind was directed towards New Zealand but seeing an advertisement in a Canadian newspaper, I applied for the position and secured it. Twelve years next March I sailed from Liverpool on the Empress of Ireland. My destination was Cardston, in the Province of Alberta. I knew nothing whatever concerning the town or its inhabitants. I cannot describe my feelings - feelings of surprise and disappointment - wi]en I found myself in a Mormon com munity. This brought about a bad attack of home-sickness, and if I had had the means I would have at once returned to England. When my people heard the news, they were almost as greatly alarmed as they would have been if they had heard that I had been cast off on an island inhabited by cannibals. I decided, however, to make the best of the situation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
