Saturday, April 30 to Tuesday, May 3, 1870 Voyage to San Diego
"The good Sisters sent us to the boat in their carriage. We took passage on the steamer "Arizona." Captain Johnson, with his officers, treated us with every mark of respect and kindness. Mother was quite sick, and scarcely able to keep up until Monday. In the afternoon Sisters Euphrasia and Martha were seasick, but were quite well next day.
"With the exception of those little occurrences, we had a pleasant trip to San Diego, where we arrived safely on Tuesday morning, May 3. We stopped at a boarding house until Saturday, May 7, when we left in a private conveyance for Fort Yuma."
From Trek of the Seven Sisters by Sister Monica Corrigan
