clare, that the full pardon described in
the said proclamation of 28th May, I860
shall henceforth be opened and extended
to all persons who directly or indirect
ly participated in the late rebellion, with
the restoration of all privileges, immuni
ties and rights of property, except as to
property with rqgard to 6laves, and ex
cept in casts of legal proceedings under
the laws of the Uuited States ; but upon
this condition, nevertheless, that every
such person, who shall seek to avail him
self of this proclamation, shall takj and
subscribe the following oath, and shall
cause the same to be registered for per
manent 1 reservation in the same manner
and with the same effect as wtth the oath
prescr bed in said proclamation of 29th
May, 1865, namely; ,.
'I do solemt-ly swear, or , affirm, in
presence of Almighty .Gor1, that I will
her ceiorth faithfully support .protect
and defend the Constitution of the
United States and the union ot the States
thereund-r, and that I will in like man
