Letter from Thomas Heddock Hilton, 25 February 1895

To The First Presidency, Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Brethern: We were somewhat disappointed at not receiving a note from you with this mail. We are all well here at present, although the Elders and Sisters have been suffering with the dengue fever; myself and wife were confined to our beds for almost two weeks, but through ^the^ help of the Lord we all "pulled through" and are feeling well again. Several foreigners have died with it, and the natives have lost a great many. We have every occasion to be encouraged in our labors; although few baptisms are being perform- ed, people seem to be very much interested in our doctrine, and our meetings are well attended. The reports of the Elders from the various "fields" are also of a very encouraging nature. With kind love and best wishes, I remain as ever Your humble servant in Christ. T. H. Hilton.
