"A PROCLAMATION.
"It has pleased Aimighty God
. to bring cur nation in safoty and
honor through another year.
.The works of religion and chari
ty have everywhere been mani
fest. Our country, through all
iis extent, :ias been blessed with
abundant harvests. Labor and
the great industries of the peo
pie have prospered beyond al
vorecedent. Our commerce has
spread o; (ji' the world. Our
Iower and influence in the causo
of freedom and eniightment have
extended over distant countries
and lands. The lives of our of
ficial representatives and many
of our people in China have been
marvelously preserved. We have
been generally exempt from pes
tileuee and other great calami
ties; and oven the tragic visita
tion which overwhelmed the city
of Galveston made evident the
sentiments of sympathy and
Christian charity by virtue of
"which we are ono united people;
therefore, I, William McKinley,
President of the Unitod States,
do hereby appoint aud set apart
Thursday, the 29th of November
next, to be observed by all the
peojlo of the United States at
home, or abroad, as a day of
Thanksgiving and praise to Him
who holds the nations in the hol
low of His -hand. I recommend
that they gather in thoir several
places of worship and devoutly
give ' Him thanks for the pros
perity vhcroT.vih Ho ha? endow
ed us, for seed time and harvest;
for the valor, devotion and hu
manity of out1 armies and navies,
and for alt His benefits to us as
individuals unc! nr a nation; and
that thoy humbly pray for the
continuance o: His divine favor,
for concord and amity with other
nations, and for righteousness
and peace in all our wyys. lh
witness I have heretofore set my
baud and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
"Done at the city of Washing
ton, this 29th day of October, if.
the year of cur Lord one" thou
sand nineteen hundred and of the
Independence of the Unite'd
States the 125th.
