Dec. 9, 1891. 
To the Manager, 
PRINCETON GLEE CLUB. 
Dear Sir:- 
In view of the entertainment which the Princeton Glee Club is to give in Orange on Friday evening next, it occurred to the writer that perhaps the members thereof would like to take advantage of their presence here on the date mentioned to visit Mr. Edison’s Laboratory in West Orange, where, if entirely agreeable, they could record upon the phonograph some of their vocal selections.  
Should the members feel like accepting this invitation, we will be very pleased to extend them the courtesies of the establishment and show them everything of interest therein. Kindly send an answer through Mr. Hoyt, the gentleman who will deliver this note to you, so that should your reply be in the affirmative, we may arrange for your reception.  
Yours very truly, 
THE EDISON LABORATORY
