Letter from John Milton Bernhisel, 20 December 1855
Washington
Wilford Woodruff Esq
Dear Brother,
Your interesting
letter of the 28th of October has been received.
I am gratified to learn that there will be
sufficient breadstuff in the Territory until
another harvest, but I regret to hear that
the Indians manifest a disposition to become
troublesome again, and particularly of the
massacre of three of our brethren.
I am greatly obliged by your kindness
in taking bad flour and giving me good.
I hope that the flour you will receive in
future from brother Houtz will be good.
The agreement with brother Houtz was that
he should take the goods as marked by
you. I am sorry that some of my goods
have been injured. Be pleased to write me
frequently. My kind regards to sister Woodruff.
Your truly
John M. Bernhisel
