Letter from Ada R. Leslie, 26 July 1897

Mr. Wilford Woodruff, Pres. Salt Lake City, Utah. Dear Sir: I was very much interested in reading the account of your Jubillee as had relatives in the first party that crossed the plains from Ills. They were living in the Temple at Nauvoo at one time I remember my Mother telling me about them when a child & later their history has been full of interest to me. Since my Mothers death have wanted so much to hear again from them Will you please give me what information you can concerning the families of White Lasley & Lanes the latter I believe were in Ogden when last heard from by us. Perhaps at your advanced age it is asking too great a favor but thinking per haps some of your family could write me you could give the earlier history I should be very grateful A. R. L.

Letter from John Alma Hess, 26 July 1897

Georgetown Ida. First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Salt Lake City Dear Bro: Yours of 28th Ult. recd. and long since considered, but please pardon the delay. I expected to visit the office during the time of the "Jubilee" but neglected to do so. I think, beyond a doubt, I shall be able to leave by the middle of next June 1898, but not before as it would have my financial circumsta- nces it in too disordered a condition. By that time I shall, I think, be prepared to go to any part of the world that you may desire. I speak no language other than the English, but I may possibly attend school
