There was a former Invitation sent to your Excellency, but as the Lodge were not acquainted, with your intentions & have also resolved, upon another place to celebrate the Feast, they judge it necessary to notify your Excellency again, hoping that you will favor them with your Company. I am Sir With the greatest Respect Your Excellency’s Ever devoted & very humble Servant. In behalf of the Lodge
