Letter from Andrew Nielson Kongstrup, 23 September 1892
Pres Wilford Woodruff. S. L. City
Dear Bro
In reply to your letter calling
me to a mission in Scandanavia
to start next April I will say
that If the Lord spares my life
and preserves me in health I will
try and be ready at that time
to fill it.
Your Brother in the
Gospel of Christ
Andrew N. Kongstrup
All right.

Letter to M. M. Estee, 23 September 1892
Hon. M. M. Estee,
San Francisco, Cal.
Dear Judge,
Through the hand of our mutual
friend, H. B. Clawson, Esq. we received two
cases of wine each, which he informed us you
had sent to us.
We were surprised at receiving this wine,
because this is the second time that you have
done this, and we have not had the opportunity
of reciprocating as we would feel to do.
We appreciate your kindness very much,
and thank you for the considerate feeling
which prompted the sending of this. We shall
value it much more than we would if
it were not your gift.
We may say as to the flavor of
the wine that competent judges who have
tasted it pronounce it excellent.
Letter from William Derby Johnson Jr. and Diaz ward members, 23 September 1892
Colony Diaz Mexico,
To the Presidency & Twelve Apostles of The
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints.
Dear Brethren:
We the undersigned members of
the Church & tithe payers of Diaz, Mex., do personally
know the truth of the following facts:
Bro. Joseph H. James of this colony, is a man of sterling worth and
integrity; faithful to all the principles of the Gospel
so far as we may judge from his daily life. He is
also a man of great energy & perserverance, & through
these qualities he has been of great benefit to the
Mexican Mission & especially to this colony, both in
obtaining & providing employment for the poor, & in
forwarding our interests with the Mexican people, with
whom he has acquired great influence. He is on the
verge of financial ruin, because of having been
induced, by persons in whom he had confidence, to
taken part in the labor on this railroad (scheme);
of which you doubtless already know a part of the
history. He did a large amount of work on said
R.R. grade, amounting, we understand, in the aggregate
to several thousands of dollars worth. If the R. R. Co.
had paid according to agreement, he would still
be ^still en^ a prosperous & useful member of our community: but
having been obliged to borrow means to pay his employer
which he faithfully did, he has been also obliged to
mortgage his property contiguous to this colony, and
