Elder G. Q. Cannon,

Dear Brother:

If the persons in whose favor draft no 275 was drawn do not avail themselves of its benefits for their imigration the coming season, please advise me, and charge the same to this office, as the sender wishes the amount returned to him if it is not used. If you have any money on deposit for John Kay, for Jane Swindles, advise me the amount and I will pay it here. Please forward the P. E. Fund Co's account for 1863. It has not been received here.

In a former letter I advised you to honor John Sharp Jr.'s order for such amount of money as he required to defray his personal expenses, and his father would pay the amount here. His father wishes him to purchase a few articles and may require one or two hundred dollars which you will please pay him and charge to his account.

Your Bro. in the Gospel
