Letter from Erick E Hanson, 8 June 1893
To the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints P. O. Box B. Salt Lake City, Utah Dear Brethren Yours of the 2nd inst asking if my feelings and circumstances would be ag- reeable to taking a mission to Mani- toba, is received. In answer I would say that I am uncertain, as to whether I am the man intended, as I am not an El- der, only holding the office of a Dea- con. I think there must be some mistake, as the letter is addressed to Elder Erick Hanson. I am at a loss to know who who would rec- commend me, as I feel that I have been very slack in my duties. Before stating what I will do, I would like to know if there is no mistake I Remain Yours &c Erick Hanson Let us find out the fact in this case, if possible, and then act accordingly J. F. S.
