John Edwards, Willard City, paid L5.0.0 for emigration of Ann Williams in 1860, he says that she has not come and now desires the amount used to emigrate Mary Jones (daughter of Benj. Jones) Bush Row, near Neath, Glamorganshire, South Wales. If the amount is still to the credit of Ann Williams, pass it to the credit of Mary Jones and advise her of it.

Brother Thomas Morris, who lives at my Grist Mill, would like brother Staines or some other one of the returning Elders, if convenient to call upon his sister Mercy Morris who lives in Bridgeport Fairfield County, Connecticut, and upon his brother William Morris, at Long Hill, near Trumbull, about 8 miles from Bridgeport, and inquire into their feelings and circumstances.
