The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1899-11-30

viI never wholly fade away because Of
tho stirring events In American history
which led to their PRONUNCIATION. 9th
ora are of interest because of their odd
ne such a one is that issued last
month by Governor George w.
Atkinson, Of West Virginia. 1t con-
sls,s Of six lines of proclamation pro-
mar. with twenty-five texts Of Scrip
lure Nil bearing upon the subject Of
giving thanks. West VlrgInians unta-
mIllar with the Bible might be led to
Relieve, by looking upon this array,
that their governor must have read the
scriptures with great zeal and dill
cence from his youth up to be able to
call 10 mind SO many appropriate texts
iust when he wanted them.
Here is one of the governors chosen
texts. Romans xiv, 6-"He that re-
cardeth the day regardeth It unto the
lord. and he that Tegardeth not the
da" 10 the Lord he doth not regard 1t.
He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for
he giveth God thanks"
Governor Atklnson's idee is all right,
however. when one considers that to
the Bible he must go for the first
thanksgiving with great rejoicing ana
religious ceremonies. This was estabs
lished by Jehovah under directions
given to Moses, as recorded In Deuter-
onomy xvi, IL, II and 10;
..Tbou shalt observe the feast OF the
,ohornacies seven DAYS after that thou
%ss uttered In thy corn: and thou
sEalt reinIce in thy feast, thou and thy
