Dear Brother:

Your mother has visited me this morning, and made a statement to me of her circumstances. Her health is feeble and she needs care in her old age, and you should have her live with you and look after her kindly and considerately. If you were to have her live alone she would be likely to get lonesome and give way to melancholy.

Your Brother

Brigham Young
