Letter from Carl A. Johnson, 8 August 1893
President Woodruff
Dear Brother yours of the 21
saying my name has been
suggested and acccepted to go
on a mission to Scandinavia
has been reieved. You say
you should like to have me
start as early as Sep 23rd 1893
I would say that if my name
has been suggested to you as
an Elder as your letter states
there is a mistake as I
only hold the Office of a Priest
Should it be correct I will
ask if I can have a little
more time in getting ready
We people living in the country
have most of our hard hard work
to do in the fall
