Letter to Henry S. Tanner, 3 November 1896
P. O. Box B. Salt Lake City, Utah . 189 Prest. Henry S. Tanner, California Mission. Dear Brother: It gives us pleasure to inform you that we have appointed Elder Ephraim Nye to succeed you in the presidency of the California Mission. You will therefore please transfer to him all books, papers, accounts and whatever else is necessary to enable him to satisfactorily take hold of the business of the Mission as well as of its spiritual concerns, at whatever date is most convenient to you both; you will also give him all the information necessary to enable him to assume the duties of his new position in the most acceptable manner. You will then be at liberty to return home whenever you deem it most proper. While thus releasing you from the many and varied respon- sibilities connected with this mission, we feel to say that your earnest and devoted labors in the presidency are appreciated by us, and we trust that you will continue to be highly blessed of the Lord in all your duties after you return to your home and friends in Zion. Praying the Lord to bless you with a pleasant, safe and speedy journey home, We remain, Your Brethren, Wilford Woodruff Geo. Q. Cannon Jos. F. Smith
