Sir

Bro. David Lewis (who appears to be insane) has made a complaint to me that he has been obliged to leave the house of Rice Williams who he says was paid a certain amount to take care of him.
I wish you to Enquire into the matter and see that he is properly provided for by some individual in your Ward.

Yours in the Covenant of Peace

Brigham Young
