Letter from Brigham Young Jr., 28 January 1893
Prest. Woodruff Cannon & Smith S L C Utah Dear Brethren: I am glad to inform you that we are all moving along well and awaiting your selection of elder to act during the intiergnum. I am fondly hoping you will answer my letter by cable, but I shall wait patiently as possible. The miserable break made by elders and saints in Denmark of which I wrote is healed up and the work going on smoothly again. The brethren repented in sackcloth and ashes so far as I can learn so have the deceived of the saints. Pardon me for suggesting that a competant committee be appointed to overhawl the hym^n^ book. I am much con- cerned about it, but will not tell my troubles they may easily be discovered by properly appointed persons. We have tried to past a patch over the line or word a "sinful” sacrifice for sin. Bro. Reynolds knows the hymn. there are corrections need- ed, badly needed in other places. Love to Brethren. Hoping you are well. I am your Bro. B. Young
