A gen tletnan', the admihistfaiorbf the eslate
of Milton Sheldon; rnentidric d in ther body of
the above !note, has kindly presented tts thb
oyginal of which is a copyWithnhe Veritas
-WjBf signatifreVia a decent, legitleronnd band,
bf,Brigham iYoung;tber apostle of Mormon-
ijomv Uacjied m'1 We alqe the VemioiscenCe
highly, partly for the autograph of - Brigham
-Young, but) more - for h the curioiis historical
value iC possesses as - showing ' the calibre of
the- man, his occupation before' Mormonism
had made, him great, and hisir status in rural
sbtietyiit Every bodyknows p that 4 while-all
industry is com mended and appreciated in a
farming community, the maker and bottomer
of kitchen chairs Is always considered as very
low down iu the social scale.' We are 4n
formed also- that . Brigham : was a cunning
manufacturer of .spinning j wheels,- while "a
brace of endorsements on the back of the note
reveal that be had: other - occupations, land
was pretty! much a Jack-of all-Trades,; '
.Thus we find two endorsements, both bear
ing date June 25th, 1830, just at a lazy time
of the year, when .-farmers do their putting
things to;rights as follows: d ni , t :? f
"June 25th, 1830. Received on the within
fourteen dollars and twenty five cents in mak
ing picket fence." : y yy ; i- r
u Received on the within-two ' dollars and
fifty-cents in framing A. Park bark.'
;! The latter is -evidently what' is called a
uturn,M ' and "indicates that Brigham,' like
Joseph of old, was a carpenter as well as
chair-bottom and spinning wheel maker." AIn
fact his occupations were veTy numerou?jf but
he. was best at a campmeatingv where' no lack
of industry could be charged upon him." , In
singing bymff and exhorting he' was enough
to make up for all. other deficiencies.' The
gentleman to whom we are indebted for this
nbte tells us that he went once to BrighamV
