My dear Sir,

   You have kindly consented to preach for our Society on the 30.th of April at the Poultry Chapel. Your kindness in complying with our request evidences us to hope that you will not refuse another. It is to speak at our Annual Meeting at Exeter Hall on the following day, May 1. This request I send in compliance with a vote adopted unanimously at our Committee Meeting of today.

         Believe me to remain

                           very sincerely Yours,  

                                       Joseph Angus

Rev. D.r Raffles.
