Bishop Draper,

Upon receipt, you <will> give Ratah a shoshone Indian chief a Beef and render the account to the supt's office.  If you have no other you can give the one that went hack that brother Smith turned in on tithing, but you must not fail to give them a beef creature any how, as they depend upon it,

Daniel H Wells
