11th Arived in , this morning being one day
& two nights from about 36 hours when
the regular time of steem boats is 12 hours the
cause of this delay is taking so many boats in tow
inform Dr that it would be wisdom for
the Saints to take a steem boat that will come thro
ugh in 12 hours to , if the luggage is no more
than what the captain will carry for it is better
to give $1.50 cts to Albany in 12 hours than 50 cts
in 36 hours & pay 1.50 cts for board during that
time also inform the Saints not to pay through at
the commencment but from place to place & athat
at the end of the journey which will save from much insult & some expens their is
nothing gained by dragging out a long time on
tow boats & slow lines distance to Albany 160 m[iles]

Roberts who a short time since came near
upseating the whole Church in New York by
giving way to the power of the and
whole Church in to the same spirit which
