G. S. L. City, Jan. 28. 1863.

Br. James Williamson,
Paragoonah, Iron County, U. T.

In compliance with your wishes, I have forwarded the names in your letter dated Jan. 11, to br. Cannon, with instructions to him to aid widow Grunday and her two daughters to emigrate this season, if the money in har[?] warrant.

We would gladly aid all who need assistance, were t in our power but money is very scarce with us, and, as only money will answer from Liverpool to Florence, I can not now tell you whether your friends can be assisted <this> or not.

Your Brother in the Gospel,
Brigham Young
