[Heber J. Grant] If the Bishop of the Ward where Sister R--- S---- resides and the President of her stake see fit to give her a recommend to the temple, from their knowledge of her life since her separation from her former husband, I would raise no objection to their doing so. [She had an abortion three years earlier.]
