Dear Brother:

Your favor of no date, respecting the emigration of two of your friends from England, has been received.

If you wish to pay for the emigration of the persons you mention you can send the money necessary for their passages to the Liverpool Office. Your letter should be addressed to Brigham Young, Jr. 42 Islington Liverpool, England. He is the President of the British Mission. Whatever money you deposit in that office will not be given to the parties you send for only for their emigration, if you so instruct, and if they do not emigrate you can have it made subject to your order. We have been calculating on about £10.0.0 a head for each emigrant to bring them from their homes in England to the
frontiers.

I remain Your Brother

Brigham Young
