Description July 25, 1876 - Richfield, Utah, to (Salt Lake City); Thurber, Albert K., and Seegmiller, William C., to President Brigham Young. Brigham Young's grandson, Brigham T., had called on them (United Order committee) with a request for $1,000 and $2,000 by spring. He also wants them to finish the Gunnison house, fence the lots, build a barn, and support his mother and family. They feel to support a family who is not in the United Order or settlement would be unsatisfactory. They have not been able to declare a dividend and do not have money on hand. Joseph (A. Young, father of Brigham T.) had made over to the Order in the past his sheep, cattle horses, and property, and had received shares of stock in the United Order. An explanation follows as to why no dividend has been possible up to now. They wish Brigham Young to put the request in writing, as they do not have confidence in Brigham T.
