Letter from C. F. Olsen, 9 March 1893

Hyrum, Utah, . President Wilford Woodruff, Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Brother: In order that I may be understood in the propert light, I respectfully call your attention to certain letters lately recieved by you from Jens Nielsen Lee, and Martine Andersen of Hyrum, in which certain accusaations are made against Bishop Wright of Hyrum. I wrote those letters for them at their dictation and was paid for so doing. I told them at the time, that I would not be responsi- ble for their contents, nor be a party thereto; as I was not, nor am not now in sympathy with the con- tents of said letters, knowing that muchany of the assertions were unreasonable and some even false. I was quite sure from past experience, too, that those letters would be brought to Bro. Wright's attention that he might defend himself in the matter, and consequently the parties who authorized their names attached would be the responsible ones and not I. In conclusion I would simply add that personally, I would be sorry to do anything to injure Bsihop Wright's reputation, or that of any of my brethren or sisters. I am, Yours in the Gospel, C. F. Olsen.
