In accordance with the recommendation
Of his ExcellencJ Governor Gilbert G..
Walker designating Wednesday, Hay 4th,
as day of humiliation and prayer, all the
public offices Of the city government, the
public schools, and the markethouses, will
be closed on that day. Business win bs en-
trely suspended in the Engineers Depart
ment, and as lar as may be possible in the
Gas and Water Works.
Our afflicted people need no suggestion
from me as'to the proper observance Of q
day set apart for the solemn purposes indi-
Gated in the proclamation of the Governor
Of the State. A realizing sense Of the ex-
tent of the great calamity, Of the loss our
city has sustained, and ofthe duties devolving
upon the living towards the bereaved ones
and those still lingering on beds of suffer
ing, will be demonstrated in general sus-
pension ofbusiness, while the people, assem-
bling in their usual places of worship, will
humble themselves before Almighty God
and implore His aid in learning the lessons
of His inscrutable providence.
