Dear Brother
I recd your letter dies- ireing to know if I could be ready by the first of August to start on a mission to New Zeland.
My reply is that I can be ready by that time, as far as I know at present.
My first desire is to comply with every wish made of me by the Holy Priesthood.
I trust that by the aid and influence of the Spirit of God that I will be able to do much good.
May the choicest blessings of heaven rest upon you.
I remain your servant in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
