Elder Henry Eyring,
Ogden, U.T.,

Dear Brother:-- I was pleased to receive, by yours of the 9th inst., information of the good condition of the Mission in the Cherokee and Creek nations, and to learn of your continued interest in their welfare.

When you next write to that Mission, please inform br. William Tiger that he and his family are at perfect liberty to come to Utah this season; and if he lacks means for his transportation, state to him that if he and his family can make their way to Florence, Nebraska Territory, by about the 1st of July next, in readiness to cross the plains, doubtless they can be accommodated with passage in the ox-train which will start from here the latter part of next month.

Your Brother in the Gospel,

Brigham Young
