Great transportation
The best mode of transportation for immigrants is steamboats. The steamboats come right into the Duluth Harbor from the Alantic in the summer, or they can come down the Mississippi. They are inexpensive and the speediest form of transportation around. If that is too expensive for you, you can also take the train from the East Coast to Illinois and then take a steam boat bound for Minnesota. The stage coach is also available from the east but it is a long journey that is exhausting. Harriet Bishop was St. Paul's first Sunday school teacher. She wrote that Minnesota was a land for people with high ideals. "I have known Minnesota from its infancy and have loved it... Come to Minnesota, but bring with you principles firm and unyielding".
