Rev. Mr. Hummer,
Kansas City, Mo.

Dear Sir:-

Yours of the 12th ult. has been received. Having just returned from a lengthy tour, this is the earliest opportunity I have had of answering it.

I wish to be understood that the Bell is absolutely at the owner's disposal on the simple condition that the actual expenses are paid.

As to the proof of ownership I do not ask for any judicial process, or legal formality further than the affidavits of two or more reliable persons whose veracity is not likely to be a subject of question.

Yours with respect
Brigham Young
