Letter to John Willard Young, 20 April 1880
Salt Lake City, .
Mr. John W. Young.
Dear Brother, I have just received
your letter this morning, and I will say
that I think it is all right and would be
a good thing if the brethren could take
contracts on the railroad, to help them-
selves so that they could get bread and
means. I would like to know where
the railroad is coming. Concern-
ing the telegram I will say that Prest.
Taylor's views were that the Presidents of
Stakes should have an oversight over the
Co-op. stores and contracts on the railroad.
I sent you a letter on the 12th of April
in a letter to Lot Smith, in which I gave
an account of matters up to that date,
which I hope you got.
Brother William
Peterson called on me this morning, in-
quiring about you and your affairs.
