Letter from Brigham Young Jr., 1 November 1890

42, Islington, Liverpool, . Prest. Elder W. Woodruff Dear Brother, There is pressing need for Elders in the missionary fields in these lands, and believing that you are acquainted with young men in the wards where you reside, who are financially and otherwise competent to fill good missions, we desire you to send such names to us as you can honestly suggest, so that we can present them to the Presidency and Missionary Committee in Zion for their consideration. Trusting that what you do will be quietly and properly done, so as not to create feeling when names are not acted upon, and awaiting a prompt reply, I remain your brother in Christ, BRIGHAM YOUNG.

Letter from Brigham Young Jr., 1 November 1890

B. Young Liverpool Rcd Nov 20 [18]90 In re Missionary The First Presidency Dear Brethren: I have sent a copy of this document to the presi- dents of the Conferences, for quite a number of them have told me that there were plenty of ^Young^ men in their neighborhood ^at home^ who were just the men for a mission. Brethren you can see that my intention is good and I hope this will meet your minds. I will forward the list I make up from the reports, to you soon as possible. True we need men who will strike out into new fields, we ^have^ a very few in the mission who are determined to plow in old fields, and there are no saints to saupport that class. In some conferences I find that retaining drunken people in the church has, in one instance driven out a fairly good man and is baring respectable people who are favorably impressed with ^ the^ doctrines. When all means are exhausted and they persist in their drunkeness I have advised their being cut off. I find respecta- ble people in every Conference who are enquiring into the gospel. Just sunday in stockton on Tees strangers came in the evening ^to our meeting^ and one young man ^was heard to^ remarked as he went out the door at the close, "I could sit and listen all night to such talk as that,"—the first principles of the Gospel. Your Brother B. Y.
