Letter from Orson Smith, 17 February 1894
Prest Wilford Woodruff
Dear Brother
Sis Annie J Anderson was left a
widow, by the death of her husband, to
whom she had been sealed, for time
and eternity, and by her 1st husband Bro
Anderson ^she^ had one child. In 1886 she
become the wife of Hans C Hanson of
Newton this Stake and by him she has
3 children. This last marriage being for
time only. For some time past I have
been asked to try to secure a divorce
for her but have delayed the matter
until it could be properly investigated.
I am now fully convinced that there
is no happiness for either of them together
nor has been for a long time and therefore
feel to reccommend to you that their
request be granted. They both desire it.
I enclosed 1000 for divorce
Your Bro in the Gospel
Orson Smith
