be informed, as soon as you receive this, what
the prospect is about the companies, and
what the chance will be about their bringing
cows with them. We can begin to feel and
see the importance of the counsel and views
of President , years ago concerning this
country, and he often said; "Bretheren, form
your settlements in ^and^ ,
for the day will come, when you will want a
home there; and the time will come when
many will be glad to find friends in
Arizona." That day has already come, and
we have got to occupy this country, and
there is plenty of room; and the sooner some
emigrate ^from ^ the better. is the hot-bed
and of this county; and I feel
it very important that we secure it.
I do not know as I have any thing more to
say upon this subject, at present. I received
word from Brother Brigham Young that he
thought he would visit us in Arizona soon,
with some other bretheren from the North. We shall
be glad to receive them; and all would be glad to
receive Bro Taylor, in this Country, if the journey
was not too long, and his business would per-

If Brother Brigham should want a day's hunt
to rest him, I could take him, in a day's drive
where he could see antelope in flocks like sheep

a hundred in a flock.
