Mr. Jacob Miller,
Farmington, Davis Co. U. T.

Dear Brother:--
In reply to your note of the 9th inst., I have to inform you that many are moving into Cache Valley from different settlements, that it is in my opinion a good valley for farming, and stock raising, and I am not aware that yourself or any other persons wishing to locate in that Valley would commit the least impropriety or infringe upon the rights of any in so doing.

I think you would do well in making yourself a good farm and home in Cache Valley, and also all others who wish, as it is intended to make Large settlements in that Valley and north of it.

Your Brother in the Gospel

Brigham Young
