Dear Bro:-

Your communication respecting one Frederick Gardner has come to hand.

If Bro. Phineas H. Young has re-baptized & received this person into full fellowship it is entirely without my knowledge.

You can judge of him for yourself but in my opinion you cant fellowship a more contemptible & worthless sneak than Frederick Gardner.

Yours in the Gospel
Brigham Young
