Letter from Angus Munn Cannon, William Bernard Dougall and William Alfred Rossiter, 7 July 1890
Salt Lake City, Utah, . President Wilford Woodruff, of the General Board of Education. Dear Brother: The Latter-day Saints' College has issued circulars for the coming school year and completed all arrangements for opening the school by September first in the building previously occupied by it, the Social Hall. To day we learn from authorized legal authority, as a settled fact, that this building will be immediately condemned by the city council in order to have a street cut through the centre of the block and that it will have to be torn down in a very short time, legal counsel having been engaged by those de- siring it to put the matter through. This places us without any suitable place in which to open the school as arranged and throws us completely out on all our arrangements. After deliberation upon the matter we have been unable to see but one place suitable for the purpose desired and we would respectfully ask that President Woodruff ^you^ of the General Board kindly use his ^your^ influence with Hon. George Q. Cannon in securing his building known as the "Cannon House" for a short lease. Kowing Brother Cannon's great interest in the wel- fare of church schools and of his valued efforts in ^their^ establishment, having no other resource, we can but hope that our efforts to secure his house will not be in vain, as upon this depends the existence in the immediate future of ^the^ Latter-day Saints' college in this city. Hoping to hear favorably from you at an early date, we remain, very respectfully. Angus M. Cannon W. B. Dougall W. A. Rossiter Executive Com.
