Wissahickon Avenue, Germantown,
June the fourth, Eighteen
Hundred and Ninety four.
Dear Dr. Morais,
It is hoping to find you in your usually in-dulgent mood, that I dare to send you this note and the ac-comanying invitation for Com-mencement.

Could I have been Bar Mitzvah, or been confirmed, or were I even allowed to read a Haphtorah, I would not thus intrude on your time. But as such is not the case, I hope, more than I can express, that you will be able to attend our Commencement Exercises.
Had it not been for the de-lightful instruction I received one day walking home from Synagogue, I would never have read Men-delssohn's "Phaedo," and consequent-ly could never have written the

essay which was chosen for one of the graduating theses.
Trusting that you cannot find it in your heart to bitterly disappoint a "sweet girl graduate," Very Sincerely, Judith Solis-Cohen.
P. S. There is a misprint in the invitations. The exercises are to commence at 10 o'clock, not 10.30.
