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.
