Jim Set Apart as a Missionary


Jan 20, 1937--
"Melvin J. Ballard set me apart as a missionary of the L.D.S. Church. After lunch . . .I went home and packed my things. Gwen and I spent the evening together and each offered a prayer for our preservation against changing from our ideals and goals. She is a wonderful character and a sweet adorable girl. . ."

Jan 21, 1937--
"Spent day arranging my trunk and checking it. Leave Salt Lake for London at 6:40 pm. Everyone has been treating me swell. I am darn glad I am going. Everyone but Gwen is bothered, which is upsetting me an awful lot. She is so insistent that I go. . ."
