Salt Lake City President, Wilford Woodruff. Dear Brother I come to you as I would to my father, (Charles C Rich) asking a favor of you, owing to sickness and the hard times I have only had two weeks work since last April, I am (58) fifty eight years of age and can not do as I could when I was younger, can you make me a small monthly allowance from the Tithing store house? until such times as I can help myself. I have suffered both for food and fuel before I would make this appeal to you as I do not like to be placed on the charity list if you can grant this request I shall be thankful I remain your Sister in the Gospel Sarah Jane Rich 146 W 2nd North street
