Mr. Francis B. Parker,
Water Valley, Erie Co. N.Y.

Dear Sir:-

Yours of the 28th. ult. inquiring the price of the Book of Mormon &c. has been received. Prest. Young is from home, but I will say that if you send $1.50 to the "Deseret News" Office in this City, they will mail you, post paid, a copy of that book, also a specimen copy of the "Deseret News," which is the Church Organ.

It is proper for me to say, however, that the Bible of the Latter-day Saints is the Old & New Testaments. The Book of Mormon is the history of the Aboriginies of this Continent, which the Latter-day-Saints believe because it is true, but it is not their Bible.

Yours with respect
Daniel H Wells
