Dear Brother

In counseling with the brethren on the situation of the church in the Sandwich Islands it has been deemed advisable in consideration of the poor health of Sister Bell, to release you from further labors on the Islands with our blessing and approval of your past labors in the mission and with permission to return home at your convenience.

Praying God to bless you and Sister Bell continually, and restore her to health and
strength

I remain, your brother in the Gospel.

Brigham Young
