Letter from Frank Eugene Morris, 30 November 1897
Salt Lake City,
Wilford Woodruff, President Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,
Dear Brother: Have received your
letter of even date, requesting me to be
ready to leave San Francisco, on January 6th,
1898, and would say that I am perfectly
willing to leave on the date mentioned if
I can arrange obtain the necesasary means
to take me to my field of labor.
Though the call was unexpected, yet
I have always looked forward to the time
when I could bear the glad tidings of
the Gospel of Christ to those who are not
familiar with the true import of SHis teach-
ings. As it is desired that I labor in
Samoa, I shall go there with as much
pleasure as I would to any of the so-called
Christian nations; it being my object, first
to obey the servants of God in all things; and
let my own desires be of secondary consideration.
Your Brother in the Gospel
Frank Eugene Morris.
