Letter from Charles E. McClellan, 30 September 1897

Provo, . President Wilford Woodruff, Box B. Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Brother: After prayerfully considering the call made upon me to accept a mission to Colorado, I feel to respond. My home is in Mexico, and when I came to school thirteen months ago, I brought a recom- ment from my Bishop, but did not unite with any ward here; and as the time set for my departure will not permit me to send this home, I have no Bishop to endorse this reply. But I enclose a recommendation from President Benj. Cluff Jr., with whom I lived last summer. If this will be satisfactory, I shall be ready at the appointed time to be set apart for my mission. Very humbly, Your brother in the Gospel, Chas. E. McClellan.

Letter from James Ephraim Steele, 30 September 1897

Pres. Wilford Woodruff, Salt Lake City Ut. Dear Bro. Yours of the 28 and 29th inst. rec'd today same containing information in regard to Elder ^Jno^ Henry Standing. We know of no reason why he was returning home. We did learn however a short time ago, that his wife was un- satisfied and was very desirious that he return home. We had written his wife for particulars, notifying of his present condition as contained in your letter. We trust that Bro. Stander was not trying to escape the responsibilities of his mission. But we certainly do not know of no reason why he was return- ing home without authority of those who preside over him. Yours Very truly Jas. E. Steele
