Letter from George Teasdale, 15 January 1890
P[r]esident Wilford Woodruff, [a]nd Councillors. Dear Brethren: I have received [a] [ve]ry interesting letter from Prest J. U. Stucki which I do not think wisdom to publish as [I] think it best to use caution as our enemies [a]re on the alert and we do not propose tell- [ing] them all we are doing, but quietly attend [to] our Fathers business. I have also received an excellent letter from President Fjeldsted [a] copy of which I will also send you. [Pr]esident Fjeldsted will require the following [nu]mber of missionaries in the early spring 4 Danish, 12 Swedes and 1 Norwegian. There should be a good Elder sent to Ireland. We cannot hear anything about Eld[e]r Einar Johnson. I sent you a list Bro Stucki sent here for y[ou]r consideration. He wants some good [El]ders. We shall require in the spring for this mission 18 for England, 3 for Scotland, 5 for Wales and 2 for Ireland. I am very sorry to report that Bro. T. W. Brookbank cannot stand this climate
