Elder Olsen in Australia

During Elder O. A. Olsen’s administration as president of the General Conference, he visited all of our leading institutions throughout the length and breadth of the land. This required extensive travel—a trip around the world. This he took the better to acquaint himself with their needs and the condition of the various missions, that thus he might be prepared to serve them impartially. It was on this journey, in 1893, that he spent several weeks in Australia. GSAM 423.1
