So in reply to the call I will say I accept it with pleasure and and will make preperations to start on the date given (July 21 1898) I feel my inability to act in such a responsible calling, but with the help of the Lord I will try to do what ever I may be called upon. Your Brother in the Gospel Hyrum M. Larsen. W H Griffin Bp
