Elder A. M. Harmon,
Washington, Washington Co.

Dear Brother:

Your letter of 24th ult. has just been received. I have no recollection of your having mentioned wanting nails in any of your letters. I will send them down by the first opportunity, though you do not mention how many you want.

The brethren can have the use of the Factory for their celebration on the 24th instant; but, <when they get together,> they should first dedicate the building and the ground on which it stands and all its surroundings.

Say to Bishop Willis and Bro. F. B. Woolley that instead of Twelve (12) or Fifteen (15) Thousand pounds of Cotton, for which I wrote, I will only need about Two Thousand Five Hundred (2,500) pounds of cotton, as I shall not keep the machinery here as long I thought of doing when that was written for.

If that cotton should be sent up soon, I will send down the nails and the irons by the teams as they return.

With love I remain Your Brother,

Brigham Young
