Letter from Andrew Kimball, 27 August 1887
To President Woodruff and the Twelve Dear Brethren: I take pleasure in reporting the condition of the Indian Territory Mis- sion. In concequence of the illness of President Taylor and the many changes since I have neglected writing until the present time. During the present summer the Elders have had a hard time of it as they have been troubled with the chills and fever, one being so bad off that it looked as though he must be released to come home.
