Ogden City.

Dear Bro:

Your telegrams & letter were duly received.

It does not appear there is great desire, or even willingness, to have you try the plow, and you may have to wait for some time yet for an invitation.

Do as you think best about coming up now, or staying at Ogden, another day or so, but on no account let them have the plow without you are with it.

As you have been instructed to use it wherever good can be done with it, the closer you stick to them, the more apparent will it soon be whether they are willing to give it a trial.

Best regards, All well.

Your Bro. in the Gospel
Brigham Young
