Salt Lake City, Prest. Wilford Woodruff Dearest Father: Your kind letter of the 18th just to hand; have delivered the enclosed letters and all are delighted to hear such good news from you. Letters from yourself and Ma were received from Portland but I did not know where to write to. Have ordered the papers sent to you which I hope you will receive.
