Letter from James Edward Talmage, 23 May 1891
Presidents Woodruff and Cannon, Gardo House, City; Dear Brethren: In accordance with your request, I have con- sulted with Brother Trejo regarding his position as teacher of Spanish, and the remuner- ation he would desire during the summer months. Not finding you at your office today, and expecting to leave for Europe to-morrow, I take this manner of reporting to you the results. My opinion of Brother Trejo's efficiency as a teacher, as also upon the success which has attended his labors with our students in Spanish, I have already expressed to you. He seems well satisfied with the arrangements of the past, in matters of salary. He dislikes the thought of having to abandon the work altogether, and return to unsuit- able labor for a livelihood, during the summer vacation, and says he would be well satis- fied with half pay until the next school year opens. This, I believe, covers the extent of the enquiries you directed me to make. I trust the answers will be satisfactory. Thanking you for many kind assistances to me personally, and wishing you all pros- perity and peace in your great labors for and among the people of God, I am, Very truly your brother, J. E. Talmage, per W. D.
