Dear Brother:-

Will you furnish such a number of suitable young men, well armed as will be necessary to aid in taking some stock that we are sending over as presents to the Indians at Uinta and be safe in traveling. They should be wide awake, observant men, who will profit by the trip.

Your Brother

Brigham Young
