Letter from Jesse Wentworth Crosby Jr., 24 January 1889

Dear Brother
I notice that there are some Seventys
that are beeing seclected for missions, that
are not very well prepared to go, Both in
ability to teach and financley.
And there are a number of young
men some High Priests & some Elders,
that would make good missionaries in
the world, That I could recomend if they
are wanted. We would like to keep a few
out all the time, as the influance of a young
man returning from a mission is felt for
good in the ward where he is from.
There is a young man in the Cannonville
ward, John H Davis, that would make a good
missionary, he has broken the Edmons Law
within two years, & he is on hand if wanted in
the missionary field. Bishop William J. Henderson
