Elder T L Allen

Dear Sir & Brother

I have received notice
from President Woodruff to prepare to start to the southern
states on the 14^th of January 1897 to labor in the missionary
feild

My circumstances at the present time are in a very bad shape
of having obligated myself to some extent beyond my means
If the President feels disposed to send me on my mission
under the circumstances I will be ready in health to start
from Salt Lake City on the 14^th of January

But if I can possibly be released for two years I hereby pledge
myself to present myself (if in good health) at the Historians Office
on the 13^th day of January 1899

Your Brother in the Gospel

Geo Lindsay Jr

President Wilford Woodruff.

Dear Brother:

Should you feel disposed
to Grant the request as made herein by Bro. Geo.
Lindsay, We feel it will be for the best and
can endorse it

Very truly your Brethren
in the Gosple.
