Am very sorry to state that circumstances will not allow me to accept the call as Missionary to the Southern states, at present But if in the future I should be in better circumstances I would pleased to accept and do my best to fulfil such a mission But at present I must decline as I cannot raise means with which to go.

Letter from Fred Warwick, 6 March 1895

Deseret . Pres't Wilford Woodruff. Dear Bro: In answer to yours of 21st Ultms can say that my circumst- ances oare not of the best kind, but firmly believe it my duty to respond to any call that is made of me. Hence I will try to arrange it to ^leave^ at the appointed time. Being only a boy I do not feel able or worthy or prepared, but will leave that to those that are placed over me, as it is their desire that I should go, I am willing to do my part. Your's Bro in the Gospel Fred Warnick. Milton Moody. Bishop good. J. F. S.
