Cend their aid in my behalf untill
they shall say it is a naugh yea
I feel that it would be a Blessing

my self under the supervision
of God and his Priesthood
with love and esteem to your self
and family one and all—
I remain sincearly your sister
in the Bonds of Gospel covenant

Cend their aid in my behalf untill
they shall say it is a naugh yea
I feel that it would be a Blessing
to us even to become their bond
Servants for life, than to remain
in babylon still an other year
Nevetheless the will of the Lord
be Done: -- all flesh is in his
hands
I will now close lest I wery
you in mutipling words; leaving
my self under the supervision
of God and his Priesthood
with love and esteem to your self
and family one and all --
I remain sincearly your sister
in the Bonds of Gospel covenant
