Dear Brother and Sister.

Your letter of the 9th inst. is received, and in reply I would say that as we wish the Southern Mission strengthened by good, substantial citizens, it is necessary that Brother Moses Thurston should either go himself or send a man who will properly fill his place.

I remain,
Your brother in the Gospel,

Brigham Young
