Silas Smith,
Acting Bishop and President in Provo,
(an open letter to be read to both parties)

Dear Brother:--
We have examined the papers forwarded to us from the High Council in Provo, in the case between Isaac Higbee and James A. & William W. Smith, and have unanimously sustained the decision of said High Council in said case, Viz:-- "That br. Isaac Higbee have out of the mill, as now sold, four hundred and seventy eight dollars and thirteen cents ($478.13/100)", such decision, so far as appears in the papers referred, being just and right, and one which we deem should be strictly complied with by all parties concerned,

Your Brothererens in the Gospel

Brigham Young
Heber C. Kimball
Daniel H Wells
