Letter, 1941 December 29

 File — Box: 1, Folder: 1, Item: 1

Scope and Contents

Morgan warns Brooks to be sure of the accuracy of the sources she quotes in her work. He suggests that she check other sources to reinforce the materials from the Ginn manuscript and suggests several sources that might be useful. Brooks had asked Morgan about Bleak's Annals of the Southern Utah Mission. He tells her again to be careful to verify facts from it. Morgan has read Brooks' chapters on Jacob Hamblin and tells her that she must write, "not for Mormons," but to interest others in the story of Jacob Hamblin. Morgan gives other suggestions but tells Brooks not to use them unless they fit her work. He concludes by telling Brooks to find a "fresh and original" title for her book.
