Dear Brother:

I shall need more cotton, than I have at present on hand here, to accomplish the work I have before me for my Factory to finish before it is moved South. I wish you to send me Twelve (12) or Fifteen Thousand (15,000) pounds of Cotton as quickly as possible.

With love I remain Your Brother,

Brigham Young

P. S. Should you have no opportunity or prospect of sending me this quantity of Cotton, I wish you to advise me immediately. I have sent a copy of this to Bro. F. B. Woolley. I only want the above quantity in all.
