The President-General and the Executive Council respectfully request that those who intend to be present at the dinner, but have not yet taken tickets or ordered seats for themselves or guests, will do so at the earliest possible moment so that seats may be provided and their comfort looked after. The tickets are five dollars each, and may be had upon application to the Secretary-General, accompanied by check. Members may invite guests, ladies or gentlemen.
The business meeting will be called to order promptly at two o’clock p. m. in the New Banquet Room on the first floor of the Hotel Plaza.
Scientific papers will be presented by the following members: Hon. Joseph F. O’Connell, Hon. Henry Groves Connor, John Louis Sheehan, LL. D., Hon. James Fitzgerald, M. X. Sullivan, Ph. D., Joseph I. C. Clarke, Esq., Alfred J. Talley, Esq., and others.
The speakers at the dinner will be: Hon. Michael F. Dooley, Hon. William McAdoo, Rev. J. Havergal Sheppard, D. D., Col. Charles Alexander, Hon. William A. Pendergast, Hon. John W. Goff, Edward M. Tierney, Esq., and others.
The Secretary-General will be in attendance at the Society’s headquarters at The Plaza after 9 a. m., the day of the meeting and banquet, and will have on sale tickets for those who up to that time have not been provided with them. The seats, however, will not be as desirable for those who wait until the day of the banquet to get their tickets, but there are plenty of desirable places remaining unsold.
The attendance of every member who can possibly be present is strongly urged, with the hope of making this meeting and banquet the greatest the Society has ever held. The Hotel Plaza is the most desirable place for a banquet in New York, and was selected by the Dinner Committee with the sole idea of having the best obtainable for our Society.
The management has given the members the benefit of a low rate for accommodations, and authorizes the following quotations to our members and guests:
Single rooms with bath for one person $4.00, $5.00 and $6.00 per day, according to location.
Double rooms with bath for two persons $6.00, $7.00 and $8.00 per day, according to location.
Dinner at seven o’clock in the Grand Ball Room. An exquisite souvenir designed by the Dinner Committee and executed by Gorham Company, containing program, songs and useful information about the Society, will be presented each member and guest in attendance at the dinner.
