Wilford Woodruff Dear Bro Your letter of 14th at hand contents noted; in reply would say I do not see any way of my going on a mission as soon as the fourth of June, as I have in my posession a large number of Sheep which I am running on shares: and which I must care for untill, and deliver to the owner on the first of October next; after which time I will be pleased to respond to a call; Hoping this is satisfactory to you, I remain Your Brother Wm.

Letter from Moses Foster Sweetser, 19 February 1890
Boston, Mass., . Hon. Wilford Woodruff, Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Sir: I am just in receipt of the epitome which you have kindly sent me. I shall endeavor to use it in my book. Can you also send me a year-book or almanac or something of that kind from which I can learn something about the geographical distribution of the Latter Day Saints, and about the size and condition of their towns in Utah, etc.? You perhaps remember that the Catholics Episcopalians, and other religious sects issue such books yearly. Or is there any thing in the way of a gazetteer of Utah or illustrated numbers of the "Deserett News"? And further, will you tell me what language the word deserett is from and explain what it means? Very truly yours, M.F. Sweetser
