Letter from William Thomas Stewart, 8 October 1892

Pres Wilford Woodruff and Counselors. Salt Lake City. Utah. U. S. A. Dear Brethren: I have pleasure in ac- knowledging your favor of Sept 12th. The Six Elders therein named had a very pleasant and speedy voyage arriving here in good health on the 6th. I anticipate releasing Elders Milton Bennion and C. W. Taylor on Decr 25th to return to Zion and therefore will need £60.0.0 for their return fares, by return mail. The £180.0.0 mentioned in your last came Safely to hand. We will need five ormore Elders by April and will probably be best to have them come on the "S S Monowai" which is expected to leave Sanfrancisco March 3rd 1893. The latest accounts from the most of the district are quite encouraging and we regard the future prospects ^as being^ good. Ever praying the blessings of God upon Zion and her inhabitants. I am as ever hope to be. Your Brother W. T. Stewart All right. J. F. S.
