Letter from Isaac C. MacFarlane, 6 April 1897

Cedar City . Presedent Woodruff Dear Brother. In reply to the call I received a short time ago to take a mission to the Indian Teritory, will say. If nothing transpires to prevent me, and the Lord will help me, I will be ready to start at the appoindted time. I feel my unworthyness, and inibelity to preforme such a labor, but if I can do any good, I will be only to glad to go. Trusting in the Lord for my support I am your Brother, in the ghospel. Isaac C Macfarlane. William H Corry Bp
