Dear Brother:--
        
It will be out of our power to haul any salt from here to Denver by the Church teams, as they go down by the South Pass and Sweetwater route. The price which they would receive for hauling the salt, would not be a sufficient inducement to cause them to go by way of Denver.

Respectfully Your Brother;

Brigham Young
