Letter from Don Carlos Woodward, 10 May 1895

Letter to Brigham Young Jr., 10 May 1895
P.O. Box B. Salt Lake City, Utah . Elder Brigham Young, City. Dear Brother: The changed conditions in the Church educational system have rendered it desirable, in the opinion of the First Presidency and the members of the Boards of Young University and the Latter-day Saints College, of Salt Lake City, that these two institutions of learning should be consolidated, and to preserve the name of President Brigham Young it is suggested that the new establishment be known as Young Institute. It is thought the best interests of the school will be subserved by greatly reducing the number of members of the Board (say to seven); as at present it is next to impossible to get together a sufficient number to form a quorum. Under these circumstances it will be necessary for the greater portion of the members of the board of Young University to resign. We ourselves have each of us already tendered our resignation, and we write this to you to ask if you have any objections to resigning also. If you have not, will you be so kind as to forward your resignation to the President of the Board of Young University—George Q. Cannon. Respectfully your Brethren, Wilford Woodruff Geo. Q. Cannon Jos. F. Smith
