I recd a notice from
you of my name being handed
in & accepted as a mission-
ary to the Northern States,
but as I had talked with
Bro. Geo. Reynolds & acquain-
ted him of my circumstances
generally just before Christmas
last & that he gave me to
understand that it would
be allright for me to get
ready to go on my mission
by the coming Fall, I have
since been working to that
end. I accept of the call &

will (with the help of the Lord)
be ready to go by the
October conference next.
I would prefer a mission
in a warm climate on
account of my health, but
will go where I am called
let it be where it may.
I also recd a
letter two days ago, from
Bro. Geo. Reynolds.
I would put him on the list
for next fall, and so notify
him. Let him go to the Southern
States—if not otherwise decided,
as he wants a warm climate. J F. S.
