Letter to John Taylor and Council, 13 April 1880
Salt Lake City .
To President Taylor
and the Council
Dear Brethren,
While at the
Colorado Ferry I looked over the
Ferry a/c while in the hands of
Mr Fouts. I found that two-
thirds of the receipts had been
paid to those who had run the
Ferry. I proposed to Bro. John-
son that he take charge of the Ferry
and that he receive one half of
the Ferry receipts and the products
raised on the place. He to fur-
nish all assistance for running
the Ferry. I recommended also
that he have one uniform rate
of Ferriage either $150 or $200 per
wagon. But all these propositions
were to be submitted to the Council
of the Twelve for their actions.
