Letter from Lewis Swensen, 18 September 1897
Moroni, .
President Wilford Woodruff,
Salt Lake City.
Dear Bro:
The call made upon
me to fill a mission to the
Southern States, I thankfully
except. Feeling very grateful to
the Lord and his servants that
I have been counted worthy
of such honer. My prayer
and desire is that I might
be humble and prayerful.
as well as energetic isn the cause
of truth. That I might
do my duty fully and
thereby honer the Lord and
his holy priesthood, I will be
ready to leave Salt Lake City.
