This being our firm conviction, we venture
10 bring our cose before the Tribunal Of Al
mighty Justice and invoke divine aid 10
behalf of our afflicted State and it's people;
therefore, our fellow-citizens ars earnestly
and respectfully invited to set apart Thurs"
day the 18th day Of the present month, az G.
day of fasting, humiliation and prayer. ltM
requested that all places Of business be closed
and labor suspended, that all may assemble
at the several places Of divine worship; and
the ministers of the gospel are solicited to
open 4he churches for service On that da5
and lend us in tho prayer unto .AlmiGhsy
God thst Justice, peace and prosperity, nercy
aud truth, with fellowship and: good feeling
to all men may come back aud prevail

turbed people.
