Dear Brother:-

Your favor of April 15th, asking what route missionaries for Europe will travel and what they will need for a fit out, whether teams or money to pay their passage, has just been received.

The Missionaries will travel eastward and be here ready to start on 1st of May. They can fit out as they have a mind to; b ut should have their own teams, unless they can make arrangements with persons who have teams to carry them. I expect the missionaries here are fitting up to go with their own mule teams.

I remain Your Brother,

Brigham Young
