Bishop Dame.
Parowan.

Dear Bro:-Bro. Charles Adcock, the husband of Sister Hannah Johnson, called on me yesterday and stated his willingness to take care of Hannah's children, now in Parowan, and provide for them comfortably. She is anxious that the children come and live with them; can they be sent up? and be better circumstanced here with their mother than where they are, better clad, better schooled, and better taken care of. I know nothing of the present situation of the children, nor whether the change would be for the best, only, that the mother desires the children and Bro Adcock promises to take care of them. Please let me know.

Your Brother in the Gospel.
Brigham Young
