Dear Sir:-

In answer to yours asking me to recommend a su(itable) person to act as a Railway Agent I have much pleasure in naming Mr. David O. Calder, of Calder & Co. who are about to open a House as Forwarding & Commission Merchants in Salt Lake & Ogden Cities. Mr. Calder is a gentleman of experience & reliability & is in my judgment the very person you require.

Yours with respect
Brigham Young
