It calls me on a mission to the Southern States, and desires me to be ready to start on Aug. 19, 1897.

I know of nothing, at present, that will prevent my being ready to start at the time specified. Your brother in the Gospel, Albert Jefferies. I can recommend Bro. Albert Jefferies as be^ing^ worthy of the honor confered James L. Wrathall Bishop Grantsville Ward
