     At this particular time, when the country which we proudly call our own, is plunged in grief and is beset by the uncertainties which must inevitably come with every change of administration, it can not be other than wise to address ourselves to the Ruler of all nations, and ask Him to guide our destinies with His unerring hand. Of the stability of our government we need not doubt for no anarchist bullet can kill the strong life of our free institutions. Still there are rough waters the sailing of which will bring less of peril if there be the Hand of Power and Wisdom at the helm. Let us then pray fervently that God’s special protection and guidance may be vouchsafed to him who now fills the high place of the President of these United States and that the prosperity which is rewarding the immense energy and industry of our countrymen, may continue nor suffer one jot of abatement.
