Bishop Blackburn:

Bro Roberts wishes to purchase one of those large wagons, and pay in currency, you are at liberty to sell him one; of course the price depends upon the quality of the wagon he gets, but they should bring from fifty to seventy five dollars. We gave a hundred each to Captn. Hooper for a portion of them, over fifty for others.

If you have any wagons in your possession light enough for common use we do not wish you to sell them.

Your Brother in the Gospel.

Brigham Young

P. S.
Did you or not sell a black bob tailed mare that came in with the Missionaries to Bro. Kimball.
