Letter from Charles Gilbert Parker, 8 July 1897

Hooper Pres. Wilford Woodruff Dear Brother I am sorry that I could not Write befour but it seams that I have been so very busy that I thought I never had time to answer befour, but I can say that I am in regards to my call I am well pleased with the time & place, and I am proud to think that I am thought worthy to th take a mission and help to spread the everlasting Gospel. iIf nothing serious happen's I will be at the Historian's Office on the day appointed

Letter from Franklin Dewey Richards, 8 July 1897

Salt Lake City, . To The First Presidency. Dear Brethren: The Mss [manuscripts] sent to the Historian's Office prepared by Elder E. H. Nye, President of the California Mission, has been carefully examined. While it contains many good points on the first principles of the Gospel, it appears to be too voluminous for popular use as a tract. If the various subjects it treats of were presented under the separate headings it contains, it would perhaps be better adapted for circu- lation, but even in that case the matter would have to be re-written. As there are now in print many tracts treating on the subjects con- tained in the MSS, the necessity for publishing it does not appear imperative. In any event careful revision and much labor would be required before it would be suitable for publication. All of which is respectfully submitted. Your brother in the Gospel, F. D. Richards.
