Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1864-12-01


insolent foe is in the very heart Of our be-
loved Empire State burning, pillaging
and desolating the country they pass over.
Our homes are threatened with the same
fate that has thrust thousands from their
homes in the upper portion of the State.
The enemy is coming With his hell-hounds,
thirsty for plunder, and the torch IS red IN
his hands. He would leave our besutltul
city smouldering heap of blackened
ruins. our fresides desolate, our women
and children thrust out of house and home,
or altars desecrated, and our whole coun-
try barren waste. Georgisns can there
be need of an appeal to rouse you to your
duty in this trying hour? We think not
If you are not insensible to all the princi-
Piles of patriotism, you will rally now-rsl-
" as one man to meet the coming foe.
You will not have to stand alone TO oppose
the coming storm. Soldiers are already
arriving, others are on their way from
Virginia. Shall they come.and find you
inactive? Nay, let every arm now grasp
its weapon, and every effort be made to
throw distractions in the pathway of the
foe. On you alone depends your safety.
Remain inactive, and the consequence may
prsve fatal; do you duty, and the over
throw of the enemy is sure.
