Letter from James Edward Talmage, 24 February 1893

(Dictated). . Pres. Wilford Woodruff, Dear Brother: On the 20th inst. I received from you by the hand of Brother George Reynolds, a piece of stione said to have been brought from the hill of Adam ondi Ahman and to have probably formed part of the altar there existing. I was requested to examine the stone, this I have done with the following result: The specimen consists of fine-grained calcareous Sandstone. Chem- ically it is composed of Silica, in the form of sand, and a consider- able admixture of carbonate of lime. It is compact and tough and would form a good building stone. The shape of the piece is probably due to the action of water and other weathering agencies. If you do not direct otherwise the specimen will be preserved in the Deseret Museum. Very respectfully your brother, J. E. Talmage
