Please tell the people of Utah that we will receive Wheat on donations to the P. E. Fund, and allow $1.50/100 per Bushel for it, when delivered at the Tithing Office in this City. and I also wish you to stir up the minds of the brethren on the subject of devising liberal things for the multitude of poor Saints, who are so anxious to gather with us.

I remain as ever
Your Friend & Brother in the Gospel

Brigham Young
