Letter to Joseph A. Young from his father Brigham Young in Salt Lake City. Young writes of his approval of Wyoming as an "outfitting point on the Missouri," that Joseph has been "much blessed in [his] railroad contract," of his own trip to Ogden and plans for future travels throughout Utah, a visit to his cotton and woolen factory, and that "Uncle Sam's prospectors on the Bench" are in the mountains looking for gold and silver.

Manuscripts
This collection consists of typescripts of interviews and diaries collected by Kimball Young (1893-1972) in regard to his research into the Mormon practice of polygamy. The information he gathered was to be used for his book, Isn't one wife enough? (New York : Holt and Co., 1954). During his interviews and research, Young also gained information about Mormons in Mexico, overland journeys to the Pacific, frontier life in Utah, the United Order, and persecution of Mormons. Assisting Young in his research were J.E. Hulett and Fay Ollerton, who conducted some of the interviews and collected notes on polygamy for him.
