Letter to Thomas Amison and George Albert Smith, 25 January 1841
40 Ironmonger Row, Saint Lukes, London, .
Brothr Amison
I Received a letter from you
under Date of Jan 9th & a few words from Eldr Smith
on the 10th I have not had time to answer you
before this, we have just Received a package of
6 letters one or two from Eldr Smith who Informs
us that Eldr Turley had arived in Nauvoo & that
Eldr Mullener had arved in New Orleans I was truly
glad to hear of their arival. We Rejoice to hear
of the progress of the work in all parts of the land
& I am Happy to inform you that the
Lord is begining to Bless us here in London. We
have Baptized 36 & many othrs at the water
Doctor Copeland & an Independant Minister
are among the number Baptized. Our little
Room is almost getting full of Saints without
the World & as the place is begining to be to
strait for us we are trying to get a chapel or
larger house so that we may dwell. Eldr
Kimball has also organized a small Branch
of 6 members in Woolwich, he Baptized 4
the first time he preached there, & the seed
sown is Bringing forth fruit & they are trying
to open a door in that place also, & Eldr
Wm Pitt is Baptizing some at Ipswich
& so if the Lord will enable us to build
up a kind of a Zion in London & have
some stakes around about it we shall be glad
there is begining to be much inquiring
