Letter Brigham Young Jr., 31 May 1874
Randolph Rich Co Dear Brother Brigham I write to say that we have organized Evry Branch in this Stake of Zion in the United Order except one, had a good time, much of the Spirit of the Lord with us. Most of the people receive it. My object in writing at this time is to say to you that Brothers Rich, Budge, & myself visited Soda Spring Branch, & preached to what people there was there of the Saints but did not organize Because the president & most of the leading men of that Branch of the Church were gone from home, butht most of those who were present voted to join the order, and on[e] that is in your jurisdiction I thought perhaps you could visit them and organize them by sending an appointment so they could be at home. We have held 23 Meeting and organize 11 Branches of the United Order. I expect to start for Salt Lake City in few days, shall Meet the Saints at Almy on my return Your Brother in the Gospel W.
