Letter from John William Crook, 21 April 1893 [LE-14182]

Heber City April, 21, 1893.

Pres Wilford Woodruff, Salt Lake City,

Dear Brother,

I received your letter of the 14th, in reply will say: I will try in my weak way to comply with the request. Trusting in the Lord to aid me in his work. My father would very mutch like me to go to England that I may perhaps get to labor among our relations and gather some geneology. I would perrefer to comply with the call and fulfill my mission and spend five or six months in England afterwards either as a missionary or a visitor if I could get to go and come as a missionary. I would like to pay our relations a visit. But I do not wish in the least to intefere with the Work of the Lord or the wishes of His servants. Your Brother in the Gospel. John W. Crook.

Henry Clegg Bp

He may just as well go to England, at once and fill his mission there, as we are needing Elders for that mission. J. F. S.
