Meeting of the First Presidency and Apostles at the Salt Lake Temple, at 11 A.M. Present: Pres[iden]ts. Lorenzo Snow, Geo[rge]. Q. Cannon and Jos[eph]. F. Smith; Elders Brigham Young [Jr.], F[rancis]. M. Lyman, Geo[rge]. Teasdale, Heber J. Grant, M[arriner]. W[ood]. Merrill, A[nthon]. H. Lund, M[atthias]. F. Cowley and A[braham]. O[wen]. Woodruff. ... Pres[iden]t. Snow remarked that he feared the result of going to the people for contributions, unless it was absolutely necessary to do so. The tenor of his counsel was to check the spirit of calling on the people for donations. All future moves in this direction should be most carefully weighed. (2)
