Show We should like you to accept for yourself, and to extend to your counselors, and to your wife and to their wives, our heartfelt gratitude for the service which you and they have rendered. Without our good wives we should not be able to do nearly the good that we do accomplish with their valued and appreciated aid. We do thank all of you foryour loyal, devoted service to the Lord to his cause, and to the people over whom you have the honor to preside. The letter was signed by President Joseph Fielding Smith and his counselors, Harold B. Lee and Nathan Eldon Tanner. Endnotes 1.
