Written by DR.. r. B. Ward fer I. n
Davis q Sons Bulletin.

The custom of giving thanks is
very ancient. Like everything

borrowed from the Jewish Feast of
Tabernacles. The Hebrews, under
the Mosaic law, celebrated the
goodness of God in harvest festi-
val under branches of trees and in
tents Of palm"

The citizens of ST.. Petersburg are
