country still shall be. as she has ever been. '.the sweet land of liberty" Her praises we sing, her glories We ac- claim.
 Resting solidly upon the strong foundations of law and order and lib erty, we fear no evil consequences to our government from the assassination of our president It's stability is not dependent upon any individual, how great so ever. As long as it remains faithful to the high principles that have emblazoned it's history in the past, and which have made it mighty power in the councils of the world. so long will it continue it's onward career, so long will it remain haven of refuge for the oppressed of other nations.
 May the l-protecting arm of God be ever raised in benediction over this re public, and may our chosen rulers be shielded from the fell designs of anarchy.
