Title devised by cataloger.
The card catalog indicates this invitation was set in "[1859?]" but someone wrote in pencil "1861" next to the date on the manuscript and I am unable to determine what year exactly this anniversary took place. The card catalog indicates that the list of names on the invitation is the same as the previous anniversary invitation except for the absence of Abby Francis and Eliza Lee Follen, who died on January 26, 1860.
