OCR Text	Show The Board of Home Missions of the<br> Presbyterian Church in the United States of America<br> 156 Fifth Avenue, New York<br><br> Gen. <br><br> March 19th, 1906. <br><br> Mr. Geo. B. Sweazey, <br> Collegiate Institute, <br> Salt Lake City, Utah. <br><br> Dear Mr. Sweazey:- <br><br> I have been furnished with an extract from your letter of March 8th, in which you refer to the fact that the railroad men of Utah have agreed to sign no applications for clergy rates on behalf of any teacher in the State, in order to prevent the teachers in the Mormon schools from obtaining such rates. <br><br> Agreeable with the suggestion made by the General Passenger Agent of the Rio Grande Western Railway, I am forwarding to Mr. Eben E. MacLeod, Joint Agent, Western Clergy Bureau, 418 Railway Exchange, Chicago, an official list of our missionary teachers, as commissioned by the Board, both in Utah and Idaho. With this list on file he will doubtless pass and forward certificates issued by the Western Clergy Bureau to all applicants if the blanks are properly filled out and accompanied by the usual fee. <br><br> Sincerely yours, <br><br> H. C. Olin<br> Treasurer. <br><br> Dict. V. B. <br><br>
Further Information	In this letter to George B. Sweazey, Harvey C. Olin writes of how railroad companies have decided not to issue clergy rates to teachers in Utah, simply to prevent teachers of the schools affiliated with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from attaining such rates. In response, Mr. Olin promises to create a list of missionary teachers from the Presbyterian Church in both Utah and Idaho, and to send the list to Eben E. MacLeod of the Western Clergy Bureau in hopes that certificates will be passed and forwarded to the mission teachers.
