We have collected a portion of this back tithing yearly, and have received G.T.O. orders in our favor for the years 1883, 1884 and 1885; the amount collected for back tithing for 1886 is $1755.40 in the following items: Building Material 70.48 Cash 149.44 Dairy 55.89 Grain 100.51 Hay 15.98 Labor 85.28 Mdse 23.30 Meat 9.24 Stock 1234.08 Vegetables 11.20 $1755.40 If all right please send us a G.T.O. Order for the amount. Very Respectfully Your Bro; &c. William Budge OK W W
