James Lavender,
Cedar City,

Dear Bro.
Your letter of 5th inst. referring to Bishop Farnsworth desiring your co-operation with him in building and running a mill at Beaver settlement, has been received. I am happy to inform you that there is nearly $600.00 due you which will get all the articles you require to start the mill. I would be very glad indeed to have you and bro. Farnsworth go ahead and put up the mill, and believe that it will not only be a great benefit to the settlement but also to yourselves in a pecuniary point.

Your Bro in the Gospel

Brigham Young
