Gentlemen,

I am in receipt of your favor of the 1st. inst. enclosing sample of knitting for which please accept my thanks. Of course, I cannot judge of the merits of your machine never having seen one, but if it be as represented I am confident it would be of considerable advantage to our community, and I would be pleased to recommend it to my friends. I wish to know what would be the cost to us at the factory; 1st without being boxed, next, with boxing. Should the price warrant the expense, I wish to send for several & have them forwarded by express. In the meantime please to forward me for my own use, Two machines one of No 1. & one of N.. 2 with all the latest improvements et ceteras. address Care of Megeath & Co. End of Track U.P.R.R. Please forward without delay.

Yours very respectfully
Brigham Young

P.S. What is your trade discount.
