Mr. Wm. Galbraith,

Dear Bro:--
In answer to yours of the 27th ult. as to how much money would be required to bring out your Wife & family, We suppose it will take this year, about Eighty dollars ($80.00) U.S. Currency; for all under 12 years of age, one half (1/2)

You may deposit money at my Office, with your Wife's name & address & she can draw the amount in Liverpool. The balance, after paying emigration, she can use for outfit.

Yours in the Gospel.
Brigham Young

P.S. say from 80 to 100 dollars.
