Time passes swiftly away and
we have not reached the valley, I have no doubt
you have some times wondered where we have
got to, I some times am led to ask my self the

Since you left the States things have
changed and still continue to change. I have
been foreman of the Engraveing Shop here for
some years, but the continual fluctuations
in trade have kept us from saveing much
money yet we have saved a little, and expect
before long to gather up my family and flock
into the valley of the Mountains. I have continued
to meet with the saints; and have Baptised
about a dozen includeing two of my daughter
we meet twice a week for sacrament and
fellowship meetings, we enjoy a goodly portion
of the spirit of God, and his power is ma-
nifest in various ways. We have received
visits from BrsWalker Armstrong, J D Ross
^Br^ Treat, Richard Cook, BrRobins, Taylor, and Felt and lastly BrEdward Perk the bearer
of this note. I have enjoyed myself in the
society of all those who brought with them
the spirit of Truth. I frequently have made
enquiries about you and sister Woodruff
and anticipate the day being not far distant
when I shall behold you again in the flesh
I wonder if sister Woodruff reserved a lot
for us, as we asked her to do next to you
when we anticipated coming the next season
never mind I expect there yet is room in
