Letter from Hyrum Franklin Thomas, 30 June 1890
Spanish Fork City, U. T. Prest. Wilford Woodruff S. L. City Dear Brother; Having not as yet received a reply to my communication of under date of the 22nd, I thought it quite probable that you had failed to receive it, and there fore again address this note to you. It would be almost impossible under the present circumstances for me to leave by July 16th. The Ward & City Records which I have now in my possession are very far behind, the former being about 2 years beghind on account of failure of my predecessor who has not his work finished. These together with sickness in my family would prevent my going at so early a date. I would therefore re spectfully ask for a short time ^2 or 3 months^ in which to prepare and await your reply. Your brother in the Gospel Hyrum F. Thomas I would give him the time asked. J. F. S.
Letter from Thomas Edwin Ricks, 30 June 1890
Rexburg, Bingham Co, Idaho. Prest. W. Woodruff Salt Lake City Dear Brother, Referring to your favor of 4th inst. enclosing letter from Bp. Thomas of Eagle Rock and instructing me to examine into the subject of the latter. Herewith I return Bp. Thomas letter and report that having made full investigation I find that Brother Smith and the other Brethren complained against had there arrangements made to go on the excursion previous to Brother Smith being acquainted that he had been called as a Home Missionary. The disposition of the Brethren in the Z.C.M.I. at Eagle Rock appears to be that being confined during the week they feel some- what to excuse themselves from attending religious duties on Sundays. I am Your Brother in the Gospel T E Ricks
Letter from Arthur Stayner, 30 June 1890
Salt Lake City, Utah, Presidents Wilford Woodruff, George Q. Cannon & Joseph F. Smith Dear Brethren: I am working continuously and the "location" difficulty will soon be removed and the site determined on and arranged for and this is really the only serious difficulty in the way. I am however crippled through lack of means, but make bold to ask you if you would feel disposed to let me have $1000$ as an advance of your subscrip- tion to be accounted for out of the first appropriation made to me from the Company from whom I have not as yet received a dollar. I think it necessary to send one or two of my sons to Europe to work in the field during the remainder of the growing season & to work three or four months in the Factories. It would be wise I think to send 6 or 8 of our young men to do this, so that we can have ready competent help to assist the skilled labour we must import. Your Kind and favorable consideration of the foregoing will be appreciated as a very timely assistance Very respectfully, Arthur Stayner.
