Letter from Samuel Whitney Richards, 21 June 1897

Salt Lake City, Utah, . Prest W. Woodruff: and Council: Dear Bretheren: It is now some six weeks and, more since I called at your office to learn if I could receive some compensation for my time if spent in the Temple as I had been requested to by Prest L. Snow. I received no direct answer to my inquiry then, nor have I since, though I have spent my time there as desired by Bro. Snow. Since the Temple opened for work, I have been on Mission work there and abroad without compensation, but at considerable expense paid by myself. Your early answer to my inquiry will greatly oblige, as I do not feel able to continue the donation of my time and labor longer to the work. Very Truly—Your's, S. W. Richards.

Letter from Charles Ora Card, 21 June 1897

Prest. Wilford Woodruff Salt Lake City Utah U.S.A. Dear Brother I have been investigating the matter in relation to tithes being held for our tithing & meeting house properties in this stake & confered with a prominent Lawyer at Lethbridge when advised the incorporating of our Church here after the same manner that the Catholic Church, Church of England & other denominations do here, which is by special act of the North West Council. I have perused these Acts and think with the Lawyer can be fashioned to meet our purpose If it meets your approval I will have a Bill framed & send it to you with Laws &c for your criticism or that of Church Attys as you may deem proper but first submit the question to you. A Special Act of Incorporation will give us the liberty of holding all the property desired in Alberta.
