Governor Sherman has issued the follow
ing proclamation:
To the People OF Iowa:
The tornado which passed through the central
portion OF the State the Hight of the 18th inst
has proven one OF the most frightful calamities
in the history of the Commonwealth.
Along the path of the storm. and
especially at Grinnell and Maleom
there was not only q great destruction
OF property, but an appalling loss of human life,
and many who escaped death ia their ruined
homes are left in q condition of suffering and
need. which appeals urgently 10 the generosity Of
the people. Ready hands and generous hearts
have already done much 70 care f0. the wounded
and shelter the houseless, but the results of so
frghtful a disaster must be long lasting, and
Others further removed from the scene only await
an opportunity TO aid their stricken fellow-citi-
zens. do, therefore, most heartily recommend
that all contributions for their relief be
sent to Hon. J. b. Grinnell, who is fully author
lied to receive them. and TO whom such trust OF
generosity may be most confidently committed
etc. BUREN r. SHERMAN,
Governor.
