Letter from Soren Peterson, 3 January 1894

Spanish Fork, Utah, Prest. Woodruff Your letter dated Dec. 22nd informing me that I am wanted for a Mission to Scandinavia has just come to hand, with the Envelope marked "mis-sent." In regard to my circumstances they are not as good as I wish they were, as the mother of my children is dead, the youngest of which is only 9 years old and the next 11 years. They of course need my care. they would have to be left in care of they older ones who are at home, a Son of 24 and a Daughter of 18. Financiely I would have to borrow some money, but I will leave it for you to judge, and if it is the will of the Lord that I should go, I shall try my best to get ready for 27th of Jan. Please let me hear from you as soon as possible Respectfully Soren Peterson (over)
