Letter from Ray Vernon Wentz, 2 February 1895
Provo City, Utah, .
President Wilford Woodruff,
Salt Lake.
Dear Brother:
I will be on hand to fill my mission
to the Southern States on the first of June. I feel
in myself unworthy to fill such a honerable position,
but I am willing and will be ready on the day that you
have stated.
I have been a pleasure seeking lad, traveling some forbiden
paths, and paying very little attention to religeon, but feel
like it is my duty and for the best to respond; my father
will furnish me in means, to meet my expenses and all
seems well for me to go, as I have thought earenestly and
received much council. I will be ready as before stated, and
will go and do my duty the best I can.
Your Brother in the Gospel, Ray Wentz, P M Wentz, Bishop
