In harmony with this action, Mrs. White and her secretary,
Miss Sara Mcenterfer, and W. C. White and his family, left
America August 8, 1885, sailing from Boston on the steamer
Cephalonia, and arriving in Liverpool August 19. Two weeks
were spent in England, visiting companies of Sabbath
keepers at Grimsby, Ulceby, Riseley, and Southampton.
Several addresses were given in public halls. p. 281,
Para. 2, [LS15].
Leaving London September 2, the party arrived in Basel,
Switzerland, the following morning. Here the annual meeting
of the Swiss Conference and the third session of the
European Missionary Council were soon to be held. p. 281,

The "Imprimerie Polyglotte" -- The Basel publishing house,
afterward named the "Imprimerie Polyglotte" (the printing
house of many languages), was just completed. The land had
been secured and the building planned during the visit of
Elder Butler early in 1884. The structure had been erected
under the watchful supervision of Elder B. L. Whitney, the
superintendent of the European Mission; and its equipment
had been purchased and installed by Brother H. W. Kellogg,
for many years the manager of the Review and Herald
Publishing Association at Battle Creek, Mich. p. 281,
Para. 4, [LS15].
The new publishing house was a large, substantial
building, 46x76 feet, with four stories above the basement.
The upper stories were so constructed that, until required
by the growth of the business, they could be used as
residence suites for families. It was in one of these
suites that Mrs. White made her home during a greater part
of the two years she spent in Europe. p. 282, Para. 1,
[LS15].
Publishing Houses in Many Lands -- When Mrs. White and her
party reached the publishing house, Elder Whitney said,
"Look at our meeting hall before going upstairs." It was a
fine room on the first floor, well lighted and well
furnished. Mrs. White looked searchingly at all features of
the place, and then said: "It is a good meeting hall. I
feel that I have seen this place before." p. 282, Para. 2,
