Zion's Camp--Its Journey From Kirtland to Missouri.
[Sidenote: Aid for the Redemption of Zion.]
About the last of April I received, by letters from friends in the
East, and of brethren in Kirtland, the sum of two hundred and fifty-one
dollars and sixty cents, towards the deliverance of Zion.
[Sidenote: Gathering of Zion's Camp at New Portage.]
_May 1_.--More than twenty of the brethren left Kirtland for Missouri,
according to previous appointment, accompanied by four baggage wagons.
They traveled to New Portage, and there tarried with the church until
the remainder of the Kirtland company, who were not in readiness to
start with them, arrived.
The following letter from Elder Phelps to us, clearly shows the
necessity there was of the Saints in Missouri receiving assistance:
Liberty, May 1, 1834.
