Letter from Frank Y. Taylor, 28 October 1892
Salt Lake City, Utah
Prest Wilford Woodruff
Dear Brother!
I am in receipt of a letter
from the Missionary Committee of the Apostles in regard to
my name being before them as a missionary, and desiring
to know if I could go to my field of labor next month
My financial condition is such, having so much interest
to meet etc, that it would injure me materialy to go away
in the near future, but if I may have a little time say
about a year, or perhaps less, I hope then to be able to
fulfill any call made upon me.
I do not ask this delay for the desire of escaping any
duty, as I have alwais had a disire to help further the
work of God on the Earth, and performe my part.
I remain
Your Brother in the Gospel
Frank. Y. Taylor
Give him a year, or let him report sooner if
he gets ready, and so note it on the list. [ Joseph Fielding Smith ]
