                                    April 25. 1870.
Mr. James Godfrey,
    Little Cottonwood.
        Dear Bro:--  Mrs. Mary Whitehead writes from Nth. Newton, Somerset, Engd that you paid into the P.E. fund. 2 years ago the sum of 30 pounds sterling for the Imigration of her sons John & Frances Whitehead.
    In looking up the books the only credit I find to you is a donation to the fund of $65.00 made in '68. I would be pleased to learn whether you donated any more than the above, if so, how much, & to whom you paid it, and let me know as soon as possible.
                                    Your Bro in the Gospel
                                        Brigham Young
