Rev. DIR. Archibald McCullagh and
Mrs. McCullagh intend to start on

pany with the party under the manage
ment of H. W. Dunning, Phi. D., who

Paris exposition. The trip ends in
Paris, June q, and arrangements have
been made so that the party will reach
New York on the return July IL
DR. McCullagh is so much interested
in the coming trip that he has sent out
the following letter to his friends, that
they may profit by his example,:
To Friends: Mrs. McCullagh and my
self having decided to take a trip to the
orient this season and having carefully
making such a trip with comfort and
thoroughness, we decided after several
interviews with DR.. II. N. Dunning that
his arrangements for o small party o., Oh
far the hest, DR.. Dunning has Travelled
extensively in Europe and in the east
and is familiar with the history, customs
and manners of the various countries TO
be visited His linguistic attachments are
| phenomenal. For several years he has
taught oriental languages in Yale Uni
versity and he speaks the language of al
the countries in our route. We take
pleasure in announcing to our friend
| that we have secured such a scholarly
and competent conductor and invite you
toll ~ To inft1 In
| believe offers rare and exceptional ad-
vantages.
After repeatedly visiting almost every
country in Europe we are persuaded that
| it is a great and lasting benefit to take
more time in visiting foreign country
| than is usually done by Americans, even
| if it costs a. little more at the time
Surely the time to be given in this trip
| to such lands as Egypt, hoary with an
| tiquity and Palestine, hallowed by the
| footsteps of our Lord, and such places of
| thrilling interest as Constantinople and
| Athens, is none too long. Different mem
| bers of this party will out of their stores
| of knowledge be able, in every country
| to contribute something of interest and
| instruction to the whole party, which for
| the time being. will constitute one family.
| We ask you to extend this invitation to
any of your personal friends who may
| contemplate such trip. It will undoubt-
eddy be of great educational value-in
! fact a liberal education to all who avail
| themselves of this opportunity
| The trip is planned with all possible
and desirable economy Those who de-
sire to remain in Europe, after their re-
turn from the east, and visit any. part of
| it or attend the Paris exposition, can
make arrangements with DR.. Dunning to
| do so. He is also arranging European
| trips for the year 1900 1t will be possible
| for ladies, unaccompanied by gentlemen,
to make this trip with saIety, pleasure
| and profit. AS it is desirable to have the
number of the party completed as soon
| as possible and as 1t is limited, ] would
| suggest that If you think favorably of
| this proposition you will communicate as
soon as possible with DR., Dunning or my
self in regard to further particulars.
Most cordially yours,
Archibald McCullagh.
