Dear Father Lauder,
We thank you very much for offering your church's facilities to us for our South Africa Freedom Day meeting on June 26, 1960 from 7:30-9:30pm. We sincerely appreciate your assistance in making it possible for us to bring a message from the people of South Africa to this community.
As Miss Hollow informed you last week, we are a small group of Africans and Americans working together for South African freedom. Both South Africans and residents of this community will participate as indicated.

It is difficult at this time for us to indicate precisely how many people can be expected at the meeting. However, we estimate that there will be no fewer than one hundred and no more than three hundred people present. We are requesting that the participants be present at 7:15 pm so that we can arrange any final program details and begin promptly at 7:30pm. If there are any questions I can answer or if you have to make before Sunday please phone me at Lehigh 5–1808.
