Many of them had already made a tedious journey by Land and Water, from their Homes in Northern Europe.
They had been gathered from Christiania, Stockholm, and other parts of Norway and Sweden, still further North; from whence they Journeyed to Copenhagen, where they met the Danish Saints; and then continued their Journey by Steamer to Kiel; and from there to Altona (which lies contiguous to Hamburg) by Rail; and then went on Board the Ship by means of Lighters; there being No Docks at Hamburg, all Vessels being moored in the Elbe River; which runs from the Czech Republic through Germany to the North Sea, flowing generally to the Northwest.
