Letter from Andrew Kimball, 10 January 1894

To the First Presidency, Salt Lake City, Dear Brethern: I take pleasure in reccomending Elder Herman E. Campbell, 344 E. South Temple Street Salt Lake City. To fill a mission in the Indian Territory. From what I can glean from my personal acquaintance with him, I know no reason why he cannot come at once, except that of collecting means for im- mediate fare. The expence being nominal, I trust he will get ready and report himself at Manard as soon as possible. Elder Reynolds reports one of the elders you notified for this mission who cannot come until February. These two will fill the requirements of the mission at present.
