Mr. E.T. Ellison,
Layton, Utah.
My dear Mr. Ellison:-
PLease accept this tardy acknoledgment of your letter of November 20th, conveying an espression of your approval of my action in handling the Hillstrom case. I have shown your letter to the members of the Pardons Board and they join me in this sincere expression of thanks.

I am thoroughly conviced that the stand taken by yourself ant the other good citizens of this state in opposition to the tactics of the lawless element, had a remarkable tendency in preventing acts of violence. In handling this case, I tridd to do only what I regarded as a plain and simple duty and it is a source of much satisfaction to know that my action is approved by the lawless element of the state.

With the compliments of the season, I am
Cordially yours,

Governor.
