Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Shaking of the Nations: A Sermon Executive Mansion, Washington, September 3, 1864. The signal success that Divine Providence has recently vouchsafed to the operations of the United States fleet and army, in the harbor of Mobile, and the reduction of Fort Powell, Fort Gaines and Fort Morgan, and the glorious achievements of the army under General Sherman in the State of Georgia, resulting in the capture of the city of Atlanta, call for devout acknowledgments to the Supreme Being in whose hands are the destinies of the people. It is therefore requested, that on next Sunday, in all the places of worship in the United States, thanksgiving be offered to Him for His mercy in preserving the national existence against the insurgent rebels, who have been waging a cruel war against the Government of the United States for its overthrow; and also that prayer be made for Divine protection to our brave soldiers and their leaders in the field, who have so often and so gallantly periled their lives in battling with the enemy, and for the blessing and comfort from the Father of Mercies to the sick, wounded and prisoners, and to the orphans and widows of those who have fallen in the service of their country, and that He will continue to uphold the Government of the United States against all the efforts of public enemies and secret foes.
