Letter from Andrew Larsen, 8 July 1895
Prest W. Woodruff S. L. City Dear Brother:— A little over a year ago I received a letter of inquiry if I could go on a Mission. My reply to that was that I would be on hand the following October. Accordingly I made praparations to that end.

President. Wilford, Woodruff, And Counselors My Dear Brethren I take pleasure in informing you of the conditon of affairs in this Mission. We are all well, with the exceptions of Elders Stephenson who has been aflected with sore eyes for some time; and Elder John Walker from Huntington who has been Ill ever since his arrival in the Mission, therefore I deem it wisdom to release him to return on the August Steamer as he has not been able to do any Missionary Labor as yet. He is troubled with liver complaint. And his head and eyes are bad, and he cannot study he will therefore Return in company with some of the Saints. The rest of the Elders are fully enjoying the Spirit of their Labors and I am happy to say the work of the Lord is progressing nicely in this Mission. New openings are being made and people are inviting the Elders to come and hold meetings in their school Houses, in a few instances, and nearly all the Elders are asking for more help. I haven't yet heard anything in relation to the last company of Elder ordered. Nor the return fares for Elder Goddards Company no doubt it will be hear next mail. It will be nesessary to release Elder John F. Burton and James Barrows in the Month of September. Therefore if you will kindly send
