Miss A.C. Fletcher,
Dear Madam: --
The executive committee appointed by the M.T.N.A for the purpose of representing that body in the musical Congress which is to form a part of the art auxillary of the Columbian exposition in Chicago, have honored me with the commission of praying you to appear before the Musical Congress as a guest of the M.T.N.A. and to read a paper on the history and development of Indian Liturgies.  Is it a subject that is in touch with the line of historical thought and musical development which will naturally comprise the larger part of the proceedings of such a body. 

I will add that the papers read before the Congress will be perpectuated in the memorial volume to be published by the auxillary, and such a paper from you would unquestionably reflect great credit.
