Mr. Walter Murphy,

Dear Sir:

By a letter from Mr. Giltinan I learn that you are anxious (from conviction long entertained) to join our Church-- the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and you are desirous to know how to proceed to reach this country.

We have an Agency in England, the gentleman who is in charge of which presides over the Branches of the Church in Europe, and superintends the Emigration. By putting yourself in communication with him (Mr. B. Young, Jr., 42 Islington, Liverpool) he will be able to furnish you with the necessary information.

Your Servant in the Lord,

Brigham Young
