‎Lincoln Orders a National Day of Thanksgiving in Honor of the Union Victory at Gettysburg‎

‎<p>Lincoln's first call for a national day of Thanksgiving.</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. THANKSGIVING.</b>Broadside. <i>Proclamation of Thanksgiving</i>. Massachusetts probably Boston ca. July 27-August 6 1863. 1 p. 20 x 28 in.<p><br /></p><p>The upper portion prints Massachusetts Governor John A. Andrew's announcement of Lincoln's Proclamation dated July 27 1863 while the lower portion prints Lincoln's actual proclamation dated July 15 1863 designating August 6 as a "<i>day for National Thanksgiving Praise and Prayer.</i>" After Union victory at the Battle of Gettysburg on July 1-3 1863 on July 15 1863 Lincoln assigned August 6 to be "<i>a day for National Thanksgiving Praise and Prayer.</i>" This was his first proclamation of a national day of thanksgiving.</p><p><b>Complete Text</b></p><p><i>Proclamation of Thanksgiving</i></p><p><i>July 15 1863</i></p><p><i>By the President of the United States of America.</i></p><p><i>A Proclamation.</i></p><p><i>It has pleased Almighty God to hearken to the supplications and prayers of an afflicted people and to vouchsafe to the army and the navy of the United States victories on land and on the sea so signal and so effective as to furnish reasonable grounds for augmented confidence that the Union of these States will be maintained their constitution preserved and their peace and prosperity permanently restored. But these victories have been accorded not without sacrifices of life limb health and liberty incurred by brave loyal and patriotic citizens. Domestic affliction in every part of the country follows in the train of these fearful bereavements. It is meet and right to recognize and confess the presence of the Almighty Father and the power of His Hand equally in these triumphs and in these sorrows:</i></p><p><i>Now therefore be it known that I do set apart Thursday the 6th. day of August next to be observed as a day for National Thanksgiving Praise and Prayer and I invite the People of the United States to assemble on that occasion in their customary places of worship and in the forms approved by their own consciences render the homage due to the Divine Majesty for the wonderful things he has done in the Nation's behalf and invoke the influence of His Holy Spirit to subdue the anger which has produced and so long sustained a needless and cruel rebellion to change the hearts of the insurgents to guide the counsels of the Government with wisdom adequate to so great a national emergency and to visit with tender care and consolation throughout the length and breadth of our land all those who through the vicissitudes of marches voyages battles and sieges have been brought to suffer in mind body or estate and finally to lead the whole nation through the paths of repentance and submission to the Divine Will back to the perfect enjoyment of Union and fraternal peace.</i></p><p><i>In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.</i></p><p><i>Done at the city of Washington this fifteenth day of July in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three and of the Independence of the United States of America the eighty-eighth.</i></p><p><i>By the President: ABRAHAM LINCOLN</i></p><p><i>WILLIAM H. SEWARD Secretary of State.</i></p><p><b>Historic Background</b></p><p>In 1861 and earlier in 1863 Lincoln proclaimed days of "national humiliation fasting and prayer." Soon after he issued this proclamation assigning August 6 1863 as a day of "National Thanksgiving" he was moved by a letter from Sarah Josepha Hale who had lobbied the four prior presidents unsuccessfully to make Thanksgiving a third national holiday in addition to Independence Day and Washington's Birthday. On October 3 1863 exactly 74 years after George Washington's first Presidential Thanksgiving Proclamation Lincoln established the fourth Thursday in November as an annual national day of Thanksgiving.</p><p><b>Condition</b></p><p>Professionally mended along several folds and flattened; minor toning and offsetting.</p>‎

‎ABRAHAM LINCOLN‎

‎Lincoln Proclaims a National Day of Humiliation and Prayer‎

‎<p>The president calls on loyal citizens to implore the "<i>Supreme Ruler of the World not to destroy us as a people.</i>"</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN.</b>Broadside "<i>A Proclamation for a Day of Humiliation and Prayer</i>" July 7 1864 printed under a forwarding Proclamation by Governor John Andrew of Massachusetts July 28 1864. 1 p. 18¼ x 27¾ in.<p>With the outcome of the war still far from clear this broadside announces to the people of Massachusetts Lincoln's proclamation of a national day of prayer. Eight weeks prior at Cold Harbor Grant had lost some 7000 Union troops in the span of 20 minutes. The siege of Petersburg was just six weeks old.</p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>Following the examples of presidents Washington Adams and Madison Lincoln issued at least eight proclamations calling for days of humiliation prayer fasting or thanksgiving. His proclamation of October 3 1863 established the precedent of the fourth Thursday of every November as a national day of thanksgiving. Congress must have worried that this was not sufficient. They could not know then that Cold Harbor would be Lee's last major victory. On July 2 1864 Congress passed a joint resolution requested that Lincoln call for an additional day of "national humiliation and prayer." Lincoln set the first Thursday in August 1864 as a day to pray for a speedy end to the war. It would be another eight months before that prayer was answered.</p><p><b>Complete Transcript</b></p><p><i>Commonwealth of Massachusetts.</i></p><p><i>By His Excellency</i></p><p><i>John A. Andrew</i></p><p><i>Governor:</i></p><p><i>A Proclamation.</i></p><p><i>Whereas The President of the United States of America did by his Proclamation Dated at Washington on the 7th day of July last "appoint the first THURSDAY of August next to be observed by the People of the United States as a day of National Humiliation and Prayer;" requesting the solemn and religious observance of that day on the part of all the people of the United States by abstaining from secular pursuits and by acts of devotion and of public worship:</i></p><p><i>I do therefore direct and request that this Proclamation of the Chief Executive Magistrate of the Nation be published and promulgated to the people of Massachusetts in the same manner in which the Governor of Massachusetts is accustomed to be promulgated concerning the annual Fast observed in the Commonwealth. And I especially invoke the attention of all ministers of the Gospel as well as of all the good people of Massachusetts in order that the day thus devoted as a National Sabbath to the special services and duties of penitence prayer and the worship of God may be duly observed throughout our Commonwealth.</i></p><p><i> John A. Andrew.</i></p><p><i>Executive Department July 28 1864.</i></p><p><i>By His Excellency the Governor:</i></p><p><i> Oliver Warner Secretary.</i></p><p><i>God save the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>By His Excellency</i></p><p><i>Abraham Lincoln</i></p><p><i>President of the United States of America:</i></p><p><i>A Proclamation for a Day of Humiliation and Prayer.</i></p><p><i>Whereas the Senate and House of Representatives at their last session adopted a concurrent resolution which was approved on the second day of July instant and which was in the words following namely:</i></p><p><i>"That the President of the United States be requested to appoint a day for humiliation and prayer by the people of the United States; that he request his constitutional advisers at the head of the Executive Departments to unite with him as Chief Magistrate of the nation at the city of Washington and the members of Congress and all magistrates all civil military and naval officers all soldiers sailors and marines with all loyal and law-abiding people to convene at their usual places of worship or wherever they may be to confess and to repent of their manifold sins; to implore the compassion and forgiveness of the Almighty that if consistent with His will the existing rebellion may be speedily suppressed and the supremacy of the Constitution and the laws of the United States may be established throughout all the States; to implore Him as the Supreme Ruler of the World not to destroy us as a people nor suffer us to be destroyed by the hostility or connivance of other nations or by obstinate adhesion to our own counsels which may be in conflict with His eternal purposes and to implore Him to enlighten the mind of the nation to know and to do His will humbly believing that it is in accordance with His will that our place should be maintained as a united people among the family of nations; to implore Him to grant our armed defenders and the masses of the people that courage power of resistance and endurance necessary to secure that result; to implore Him in His infinite goodness to soften the hearts enlighten the minds and quicken the consciences of those in rebellion that they may lay down their arms and speedily return to their allegiance to the United States that they may not be utterly destroyed that the effusion of blood may be stayed and that unity and fraternity may be restored and peace established throughout all our borders."</i></p><p><i>Now therefore I Abraham Lincoln President of the United States cordially concurring with the Congress of the United States in the penitential and pious sentiments expressed in the aforesaid resolution and heartily approving of the devotional design and purpose thereof do hereby appoint the first Thursday of August next to be observed by the people of the United States as a day of national humiliation and prayer.</i></p><p><i>I do hereby further invite and request the heads of the executive departments of this Government together with all legislators all judges and magistrates and all other persons exercising authority in the land whether civil military or naval and all soldiers seamen and marines in the national service and all the other loyal and law-abiding people of the United States to assemble in their preferred places of public worship on that day and there to render to the Almighty and Merciful Ruler of the Universe such homage and such confessions and to offer to Him such supplications as the Congress of the United States have in their aforesaid resolution so solemnly so earnestly and so reverently recommended.</i></p><p><i>In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United Stated to be affixed.</i></p><p><i>Done at the city of Washington this seventh day of July in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-four and of the independence of the United States the eighty-ninth.</i></p><p><i> Abraham Lincoln</i></p><p><i>By the President:</i></p><p><i> William H. Seward Secretary of State</i></p><p><b>Additional Historical Background</b></p><p>Ulysses S. Grant appointed by Lincoln in March 1864 as General-in-Chief of the Union Armies relied on the North's superior resources to attack relentlessly wear down and destroy Lee's army but the cost in lives was horrific. In the Virginia Battles of the Wilderness Spotsylvania and Cold Harbor in May and June of 1864 the Union army suffered 65000 casualties. Despite the toll Grant refused to back down. At Spotsylvania he wrote a dispatch that summed up his attitude: "I propose to fight it out along this line if it takes all summer."</p>‎
