Letter from Otto Johnson, 1 April 1896
Bro. George, I submitted these two drawings to three of the Twelve, and several other brethren, and all are unanimously in favor of bro. C. C A C's picture and recommend it in preference to the other. It can be Photographed any size desired for the engraver. J. F. S. Pres. Wilford Woodruff. Box B. Salt Lake City. Dear Bro. The enclosed cut representing the Angel Maroni delivering the plates to the Prophet Joseph was designed and drawn by Elder A. G. Young of this conference, for the purpose of being printed on the back of Elder Spencer's tract, entitled, "The Prophet of the Ninteenth Century." This is the tract that Elder J. R. Clark has already submitted to headquarters for inspection and approval. This drawing is now sent for the same purpose. The tract is about to be printed, hence a prompt reply would be a great favor. Very respectfully your brother Otto Johnson, Pres. of Conference per H.
