Extract from Captain Scott’s letter 
Quebec Oct. 17, 1862 

You will be glad to hear that we found great blessing at the Guelph meeting – that town is 570 miles from Quebec and can be reached by the Grand Trunk Railroad in 36 hours. We were 90 in number gathered there and read for 8 hours a day in the house of our brother Arthur Wells, on Friday 20th Sept., Saturday, Monday, & Tuesday. Forty of us were accommodated in the house, & the rest in the town, & we numbered 70 at each meal at the long table at which we afterwards assembled for reading.
