Dear Brethren:-

We want one hundred (100) men to go with Bro. L.N. Christiansen to work on the big slate cut in Weber Canon. This work has to be done at once. Please use your influence with the brethren to have all who can, come with bro. Christiansen to our help. If they can bring some flour and beef cattle, or other provisions, they will have considerable, as they will have to board themselves.

Your brother in the Gospel.
Brigham Young
