To the Citizens Of Richmond.
We desire to correct some false inn
pressions IN regard to the purpose of
the May Musical Festival to be given
May 4 and 5. This is not private
venture, benefit for any certain in
stitution or money making scheme.
1t is our desire and purpose to
bring to the people of Richmond the
best series Of musical entertainments
which this city has ever heard. In
doing this, we believe that besides
giving great deal of pleasure to
those who attend, it will prove a
good advertisement for the city.
While the musical selections to be
rendered are the best productions Of
eminent composers yet they have been
selected with regard to tunefulness
and melody and are such as can be
appreciated by those who have not
trained musical ear. We desire to
make only money enough to pay ex-
penses and have made the prices
within the reach of all believing that
it is better to sell large number of
tickets at a small price than a small
number at. large price,. a- 49,.
We believe that the people of this
city will patronize this venture with
the iberality. which it deserves and
we assure them that they can safely
do so. i" 60

accommodate the patronage.
Carpenters are busy erecting the
large platform required to seat the
orchestra and chorus, and by to
night it is expected that this
will be completed The matter Of dec
