Ogden, Utah, Dr Wilford Woodruff Salt Lake City Utah Dr Bro. On June 2 through the Secretary of the Missionary Committee I received a letter assigning me a mission to the Eastern States requesting that I be prepared to leave by Nov 25 [18]97. An affirmative reply being entirely in accord with the views of my parents and as there are no reasonable obstacles appearing at present I am pleased to inform you that should no unforseen occurance during the interim intervene I will leave on the appointed date.

Letter from Orson Spencer Clawson, 3 June 1897

Salt Lake City Pres. George Q. Cannon, Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Brother:- Referring to the subject of the Temple Block wall which has been agg^i^tating the minds of the sub-committee of the monument Association for some days, I desire to put myself before you in respect to my personal feelings only upon this subject even at the risk of encurring your displeasure, but it is to you alone and not with any wish to stand in opposition to any of your associates upon this subject. Since you went away a meeting was called at the office of Z.C.M.I. of the property owners in the vacinity of the Temple Block. A sub-committee consisting of Heber J. Grant, George M. Cannon, John C.

Letter from Elias Smith Kimball, 3 June 1897

Prest's. Woodruff and Smith, Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Brethren: In answering your esteemed favor of May 10th., referring to fasting and indulging in a spirit of rivalry among the Elders in breaking records, I beg you will pardon me for the seeming delay that has occurred. I was away from the office when your letter came, and since returning my health has been very poor, but is fast im- proving. I do not think I can say anything in answer to the question you refer to that will so fully explain matters as to inclose several circular letters I have written to the Elders of this mission at differ- ent times.

You will please notice the brethren are left to do as they may deem proper, no restraint being placed on them. I have never desired to make any iron rules by which to govern my brethren. That I have made many, very many mistakes, I am very frank to confess, and from what you say has come to your ears, I do not know but that I have made a grave mistake in saying so much about fasting as is contained in these letters. Instead of leading the mission in fasting, the different con- ferences have lead this office, as is intimated in circular letter of March 25th. As to fasting Sundays and Thursdays, I submitted this matter to the brethren laboring in the office, all of whom favored it and were
