Day and Thanksgiving festivities 10,
I've can revive and renew by warm hand
fs old affections and bring TO mlnd Tor
I memories, There are the minor
d but above those we have JOY ana
in our state and nation, JOY because
word Of God is more manifest among US
bid more extended to all our borders
10y in the progress of both statesman
citizen Time was in the history OF TINS
as well as others when the people
not in joy but in sorrow and prayer
linking God punished people for IN
ted sins and that He was stern and WIN
living mercy. Now our feast days
filled with reverence and we are happier
We have come into gentler and warm
light. In the past we needed just sucn
Of granite to face the condition OF
g The first church that rose was
lied one and, never retreating, our IA
aernly followed the path of duty. On
foundations that they laid have grown
beautiful structures than they had ever
med, We today are in these beautiful
t1ndngs because the fathers of TINS
let built as they did, and you today
what you are because of the character
Energy of the men of the past. l speak
