I am the little sick girl who lives next door to the church, and, as I
seldom go out, the music on practice days and Sundays is one of my
greatest pleasures.
I want to know if you can let the boys sing 'Carol, brothers, carol,'
on Christmas night, and if the one who sings 'My ain countree' so
beautifully may please sing that too. I think it is the loveliest song
in the world, but it always makes me cry; doesn't it you?
If it isn't too much trouble, I hope they can sing them both quite
early, as after ten o'clock I may be asleep.
--Yours respectfully,
