Pres. Wilford Woodruff
Salt Lake, Utah
Dear Bro.
Your letter of appoint-
ment received, and to day we held our
second meeting in pursuance of and ^in^ accord-
ance with your instructions and exhortations
which we greatly appreciate. There are eight
of us at present: Joseph Jenson, John A. Widtsoe,
George L. Swendsen, George F. Thatcher, George
Thomas, Moses Davis, and Arthur Thomas.
At present we are at work in the summer
school here. As I shall have seven weeks
after my summer course closes here before
the regular session opens the 1st of Oct. I may
go to Canada and obtain oboard in some
respectable and cultured fFrench family of Que-
bec in order to acquire greater fluency in
speaking French. I learn that no certificates
or credentials brought with me will exempt
me from the entrance examinations
