Dear Sir,

Yours to Prest. B. Young for assistance to come to this place was duly received.

There are many thousands of our people scattered through Europe & the U. States many of whom have been in the Church twenty years, and are too poor to emigrate, that our utmost energies are taxed to assist them. All the money that could be raised for that purpose, this season, has been forwarded to our emigration agents, and is subject to their dictation. Mr. W.C.

Staines, 3957, P.O. Box, N.Y, City is our agent for the States.

Yours respectfully
D McKenzie
Cor. Sec.
