Bishop W.S. Seeley,
Mount Pleasant.

Dear Bro:-I have just received a letter from a sister, signed Kjerste Hagstrom complaining of her husband Peter Jensen of Mount Pleasant, and, if the facts are as represented, his treatment of her is cruel and unjust. We wish you to bring the parties together, and inquire into the facts, and see that justice is done her. We would also be pleased to have you do something in your Settlement to emigrate her children.

With best wishes to yourself and all the Saints in Mount Pleasant to whom I desire to be kindly remembered. I enclose her letter for your perusal, please return it.

Your Bro. in the Gosp
Brigham Young
