The NEW YORK HERALD praises "Those hardy, bold pioneers-who (quitting their home, and leaving the pleasant associations which cling around the scenes of their childhood) hew down forests and build up cities, and make the wilderness bud and blossom-deserve our sympathies and most heart felt wishes of success" The ship BROOKLYN left New York with 230 Mormon pioneers who left the same day (bound for California) as the start of the exodus from Nauvoo.
