and
devotiion,
I, HENRY
H. HOUGH,
Gov-
ernor of the Virgia Islands
of the United
States
of America,
do
earnestly
recom-
mend
that
the
people
oi
these
islands
gather
at their family altars
and in their
houses
of worship
on that day to
render
thanks
to God for the
pounties
they have
enjoyed
and
to petition that
these
may
be
continued
and
increased
in
the
year
before us.
in
toe neginning
of
our
country
the
custom
was
established
by
the
dzvouat
fathers
of obs2rvinz

e ninently siting
that
the
custom
should
be
perpetuaied.
;
No
coancey
and
no prople are
without
their
trials and
tribafaiions,
ny
country
and
no people
are
without
the
bounties
and protection
of the Divine
power,--let
us
all on
this day of Thanksgiving
seek
only
to remember
the
latter.
Let
each
heart
be
searched,
for the benefits
and
blessings
received
at
the
hands
of the
Almighty and for these
let
us lift up our
hearts
in
an
appropriate
expression
of
appreciation
and gratitude.
.
The terrors of war have passed
us by and
we
are living as peace
with the
world at
large,
we have been
spared
the
destruc-
tion due to hurricanes,
earthquakes,
and
tidal waves,
the
deva
tation due
to pesti-
lence,
plagues,
epidemics
and
serious
illnesses,
we have
had
neither
drought
nor
famine,
we have
been
blessed
with
the protection of law and order.
We
are
a God-loving people,
religiouasly inclined,
living in
a spirit of ami
'y and
brotherly
love.
Let
us
therefore
celebrate
this
day
of Thanksgiving
as
sincerely
as
did
the
originators
of the
custom
when
it
was first established.
IN WITNESS WHERIKEOF I have here-
unto set
my hand
and caused
the seal
of
the Government
of
the Virgin Islands
of
the United States
to be aflfixed.
