Mr. George H. Chefter
Coalville East Weber.

Sir:

Your letter of the 15th instant has been received.

If you truly wish to be baptized, and to become a Latter-day Saint, repent of your sins, and go to work for some honest man, instead of such a persons as you have been working for, and prove yourself worthy of the fellowship of the good. When you do this, an application for baptism will be favorably received

Respectfully
Brigham Young
