In January 1908 I made a present of my book Musings and Memories Book of Poems published in 1896 to Samuel Woolley President of the Sandwich Island Mission there is a poem written for the family on his return from his first mission there I also gave one to the ex Queen in the winter of 1898.³³ on her visit to Salt Lake City.

May Anderson said to me these words, Do you know what I think of you– I think you are far and away the most wonderful woman there has ever been in this Church. {p. 418}
