Letter from Joseph Smith III, 29 March 1889
San Bernardino, Cal.
Pres Wilford Woodruff,
Salt Lake, Utah;
Is the "Historical Record,"
hitherto published, and now being published
in Your city by Eld Andrew Jensen, en-
dorsed by You? aAnd are the statements
made in that periodical sanctioned
by You? Are those statements alleged as
facts in said "Historical Record" un-
derstood and endorsed by you? In short,
do you and your fellow church officials
understand and accept and endorse
Andrew Jensen as ^an^ accredited historian,
and the "Historical Record," as the History
of the church, over which You preside?
Please pardon my addressing
these questions to you; but I have good
reasons for asking them of You.
Yours Respectfully
Joseph Smith
Address me here, call box 695, or Lamoni,
Iowa.
