Letter from Leonard John Nuttall, 6 June 1884
Prest. Wilford Woodruff and Apostle H. J. Grant. Rexburg, Oneida Co. Dear Brethren: I am directed by President John Taylor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of May 31st which arrived this morning, and to say that the contents thereof are highly appreciated and very satisfactory. And he desires to say that during the coming Summer he, with one or both of his counselors and probably some of the Apostles, expects to visit the Northern Stakes, at which time the complete organizations of those Stakes will be attended to. But in your visiting in the settlements where you deem it nec- essary to ordain and set apart one or more Bishops, you are at liberty so to do. In this of course you will use your own judgment. Everything is moving along satisfactorily here. Jordan River very high. Day before yesterday, at the request of Bro. Jesse W. Fox, President Taylor called upon Bp. Wm B. Preston
