Letter from Theodore Beldon Lewis, 6 July 1888
Pres. Wilford Woodruff, Dear Bro, Yours of the 3rd inst. is just recd. My plan is to charge an admission of 25 cts. I delivered the lec- ture here and divided it into three parts, in- troducing some choice music between the delivery of the parts, which made a very pleasant entertainment. Pres Shurtliff was present and has expressed himself as wishing to have it repeated, as there were many of the young people falling into infidelity. I wish, if agreeable, to put in the work during my vacation. Any suggestion from you as to a better plan will be kindly received. Thanking you for your consideration I remain Your bro T. B. Lewis Box 344.
