President's Office,
Gt. Salt Lake City
August 15th, 1867.

Mrs. Nicoline Olsen,
Second Ward.

Dear Sister:

The plan which you suggest in your letter for fitting up a suitable house for sisters to be confined in and for the teaching of midwifery, is without doubt a good one. If you could get your friends to assist you, and a house that would suit you, it would be a very good plan to have such an establishment. But for myself I have so many calls and so many duties, which are more pressing, to attend to that you must excuse me from doing anything in the matter.

Your Brother,

Brigham Young
