Letter from George L. Farrell, 10 February 1889
Prest. Wilford Woodruff,
Dear Brother:
I received your very kind
Letter of Sept. 3 last was received on the 20th of
the same month, and would have been answered
sooner, but it got mislaid in some way until just
before Bro Lyman and Taylor left us, therefore I thought
I would wait until now to answer, as the Brethren
would be able to tell you better than I could write of
our prosperity and Labors in Lee's Creek, we did
enjoy their company and and wise Counsels very
much indeed, of which no doubt they have made you
conversant, and we heartily thank you for sending
them out to visit us, and pray the Lord to continually
bless you and preserve you from your enimies with
all the Brethren associated with you.
As you say in your letter doubtless the Lord has a
purpose in view the establishment of our Colony,
this becomes more and more evident as time roll's
on and we can all see the hand of the Lord made
manifest in our favor on many occasions
