Dear Bro

I feel to indorse the call
on Bro Ward for a mission to Great Briton
he can leave his affairs in good shape
so that his family can get along alright
in his absence I believe; so that he
can fill a his mission if his health does
not fail he is a little odd in some
respects still I think he will mak a
good missionary

Very Respect Yours
Cha^s Adams, Bp
