Dear Brother;
Yours of March 31st with inclosure, is at hand, and in reply I have to inform you that I know of no objection to your acting, in regard to taking or sending wheat and salt, as your judgement, feelings and means may dictate and permit. Wheat will ripen, though it does not reach that locality so soon, by from 4 to 8 weeks, as the time specified. It is anticipated that some empty teams will start for Florence, at as early a date as will admit of travelling, say, if you should not conclude to go or send teams yourself.

Your Brother in the Gospel,

(signed) B. Young
