Kansas Territory, the people are suffering
for the want Of bread and have appeal led
to us for aid. Believing it to be our duty
to contribute to their relief, | recommend
that on Thursday the 29th inst, which has
been set apart as a day of Thanksgiving,
contributions be made at all places of public
worship in this State. And for that purpose
respectfully call upon ministers Of the
Gospel to present this subject to their sew
eral congregations.
Contributions thus made may be forward
ed to Calvin Fletcher, Esq, at indianapolis,
who will forward the same to Kansas.
May the people remember that " it IS
more blessed to give than to receive.
