Dear Brother I read a letter
addresd to Elder John Bohman
Jr for a mission to Scandinavia
& will say we have a John W ^Senr^ &
a Charles J E Bohman and am
not decided which is meant.

but will say that I think it
would work rather as a hardship
to them at the present time than
a benefit as J W is the father and
59 years of age, and C J E is his
son 27 years of age and in now in
the B. y academy at Provo being his
first opportunity of having such a
privelege and should stay there at least
2 years to Qualify him for such duties
and Alma another son 23 years old is
called by the Stake Presidency and is

now labouring in the Manti
Temple
for at least six months.
leaving only one son younger at home
to care for the family and all other
matters. yet these Bretheren do not
desire to shrink from any duty
imposed upon them. J W Senior is
also President of a Quorum of Eleders
in this place. Knowing that the Spirit
of God
will direct you aright in
this as in all other matters we
remain your Br in the Gospel of
Christ
