Letter from Aaron Hardy Jr., 6 March 1894
President Wilford Woodruff:
Dear Brother,
Some
time since, I received a letter signed by
you, dated Jan. 8th last, addressed to
"Adam" Hardy Jr. Moroni, notifying him
of being called to go on a Mission to the Southern
States, to start June 9th &c.
I wish to say that there is no Adam
Hardy, in this Ward. If I am the person
for whom the call was intended, permit me
to say that my reason for not answering sooner
was that I was held as surety on an obligation
of a friend, which I had to pay on the 3rd inst.
I had hoped it would be otherwise, that I might
report myself ready to start as above, if wanted.
I have had to part with all my available means,
but if I am wanted, I respectfully desire six
months or more time in which to raise the nec-
cessary means when, although realizing my in-
ability to do much good, I will ^go and^ do the best I
can.
I remain
Your Brother
Aaron Hardy Jr.

He is no doubt the man
we want. Give him the
time he needs. J. F. S.
