Dear nephew:

Your favor of the 3rd instant informing me of your safe arrival at your home and of your labors since your return and the condition of affairs in the South, has been received and perused with pleasure. I am glad to welcome you back again once more from your mission to your home in the midst of the saints of God, and hope that you will enjoy their society and that of your family and friends.

When bro George Garner reaches here we will then talk to him on the subject of crediting you on labor tithing for bringing up Sister Burnham and family from San Bernardino. 

Your folks are all well. With love

I remain your Uncle

Brigham Young
