Dear Brother:-

In reply to your favor of the 2nd inst. I see no necessity whatever for you to resign your present offices in Juab Co. I believe you can attend to those duties without neglecting the saints <now> placed in your care. I should advise you to keep your place in Nephi and make you another home at Levan.

Praying the Lord to bless and sustain you in faithfully fulfilling your calling. I remain,

Your Brother in the Gospel.
Brigham Young
