Letter from Ephraim H. Nye, 26 February 1897

President Wilford Woodruff, Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Brother: In my last letter I asked for instructions on the following matter. There is a coupple in Sacramento members of the Church; who had their Endowments in the Endowment House years ago, and were married there; they afterward came uout here and the Husband has a good posoition in the R. R. Shops. They are good faithfull Latter-Day- Saints. Their House has been a home for the Elders for years. The Sister is a most devout member of the Church, and worthy of all acceptation. Her Health is very poor. She desires to make a trip to Salt Lake City and work in the Telmple; to be baptized for her health and work for her dead, and afterwards return to Sacramento. Is there any way by which she can secure the needed recom^m^end to admit her to the Temple? The Branch at Sacramento is not fully or- ganize d, it has but a Presiding Elder over it and the traveling Elders laboring there. If there is any way that this Sister can be admited to the Temple to work for her dead and gain a blessing for herself, Please instruct me. .Praying for the blessings of the Lord upon his servant W Wilford, and upon all his associates, I remain very respectfully, Your Brother in the Gospel, E. H. Nye
