Letter from Edwin H. Frost, 21 September 1897
Pres. Wilford Woodruff Salt Lake City, Dear Sir— Will you please to send me your autograph on the enclosed slips at your con- vience. would it be asking you too much if you could give me the name of three or four books on the history, etc. of the Mormons. Was there ever a book written in the per- sonal history of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young? Thanking you for your kindness, I remain very truly yours Edwin H Frost

Letter from John Crompton Rushton, 21 September 1897
Iona, Idaho, Pres. Wilford Woodruff— Salt Lake City Dear Bro. Yours of July 20th [18]97 was duly rec'd. Same stating that my name had been suggested and accepted as a missionary to Great Britiaain. Although my reply is somewhat tardy, owing to circumstances which I do not think it will be necessary to explain, In reply or in ans. to this call will say that I will endeavor to be ready by Feby; 1898 the date named in letter. Had the date been March instead of Feby. It would have been more convenient for me as by that time I would have finished the settlement of Tithes for the year [18]97. I am ^however^ willing to go and will endeavor to be ready at date named in your notification. Yours Very truly, J. C. Rushton Alfred J. Stanger Bishop
