Dear Sir:--

Your favor of the 14th ult. expressing a wish to obtain a Book of Mormon, has just come to hand.
    
We have a book agency at New York City where that book and other works of our Church are for sale. By addressing a letter to Wm. H. Miles, 117 John St., New York, he can furnish you by mail or express with a Book of Mormon or any other work illustrative of our doctrines. This will be better than for the book to be forwarded from here, as the mails are sometimes uncertain, and book postage to and from the Mountain territories is very high.

Praying that you may be guided aright in your search after truth

I remain Respectfully,

Brigham Young
