currence among the colonies. Thanks
givings were appointed as occasion
suggested sometimes at one season
sometimes at another. Record is made
of the appointment in July, 1923, for
a day of fasting and prayer for rain,
and while the people were praying rain
came in abundance, whereupon the
governor of Massachusetts appointed
u Thanksgiving, which was observed
with religious services. On the other
hand, one appointed in 1861 was for
stopping the bottles of heaven and re-
straining the excessive raign." Grad
ually the tendency in the New Eng
land colonies was for an annual
Thanksgiving day soon after harvest
a custom that was occasionally OBJ
served in New York and other states.
Thanksgiving day was first a ma
tional institution during the Revolution,
but after the general Thanksgiving for
peace in 1854 there was no national
appointment until 1879, when Wash
ington, by request of congress, recon-
mended day of thanksgiving for the
adoption of the constitution. At the
close of the Revolution there was a
disposition in New York to make the
day a regular institution, and John
Jay in 1875 issued proclamation for
Nov IL. The act met with opposition.
1t was claimed that Governor Jay was
seeking to fiatter religious prejudices
for party purposes.
Up to the time of the civil war the
official recommendation of Thanks
giving day was confined chiefly to
New England. On the Sunday preced-
ing the appointed day the formidable
a,
rial seal, was unfolded. covering al
most the entire pulpit To the younger
members of congregation it was a mat
ter of peculiar interest. 1t meant
red letter day and thoughts of tur-
keys and mince pies mingled with di-
vinity as the minister with frosty
breath read the proclamation. When
he came to the close and lifted up his
eyes to heaven. saying. God save the
commonwealth of Massachusetts, it
seemed as if Massachusetts were big

be common, but have now passed
away except on rare occasions of ma
