Gentlemen

Your favor of 9th inst reached me this morning. We have no telegraph College in this Territory, but have a large number of Telegraph operators, and the art of telegraphy is made a special branch of education at our University in this City and at its branches in other cities in this region.

Yours Respectfully,
Brigham Young
