Dear Bro:-

I wish you to ascertain what you can get for wool, as I have a quantity which I might as well ship and get money for, of which I am in need at present, to carry on my multitudinous business. Write me at once on this subject and let me know. My health I am pleased to inform you has improved much during the last two days. Let me know to what address the wool is to be shipped and all particulars and keep the matter to yourself. & oblige

Yours truly,
(I am under the necessity of doing this as I cannot carry so much in wool)

Brigham Young
