Letter to John Daniel Thompson McAllister, 15 September 1888

Salt Lake City, U. T. Prest. J. D. T. McAllister, St. George Dear Bro: To complete our settlement with Receiver Dyer it is necessary that we surrender the certificate for 350 shares of Deseret Telegraph Stock issued to your Stake Association March 2, 1887. It is consequently necessary for me to request you to return to me the certificate referred to with as little delay as possible, so that the terms of the agreement may be complied with. It should be endorsed by the proper officer. Will you please take such action as you may deem necessary in the premises. Your Bro. in the Gospel, Wilford Woodruff

Letter from William Clark and S. Haigh, 15 September 1888

San Jose, Cal. . Presdt Woodruff Salt Lake City Dear Sir Your esteemed favor of the 4th inst to hand. We are sorry you cannot see your way clear to purchase the Durango property as it is a fine colony tract. If it is too large, we think (but at present are not sure) we can induce one of the owners to sell out his interest vizt 660.000 ^acres^ for a low figure—about 25￠ per acre & the purchaser will have choice of locating where he pleases on any part of the grant. e. c. he can select the 660.000 acres in the best or worst part of it to suit himself. Respectfully Clark & Haigh
