Our national observance of an annual day of Thaksgiving is
a heritage from the Pilgrim Fathers, who assembled at the turn
of the year to offer prayer and praise to Almighty’ God from
whom came their strength to endure daily hardship and to face
unknown danger. It is fitting that we should reverently con­
tinue in this day of prosperity and security the institution they
founded amidst adversity and peril.
Now, therefore, in conformity with the proclamation of the
President of the United States which comes as a recurring re­
minder of our national unity in the perpetuation of this American
custom, I, I. L. Patterson, Governor of Oregon, do proclaim
Thursday, November 29,1928, as Thanksgiving Day, and do here­
by set it aside as a public holiday.
Let us on this day give thought to man’s fellowship with na­
ture in achieving the fruits of the harvest. Let us confirm and
strengthen the ties of family life and renew the bond of hearth
and home. Let us express our gratitude for peace by extending
the spirit of good will to all the world and for prosperity by lend­
ing generous and kindly aid to those in sorrow or need. I^et us
give thanks for manifold material blessings by turning our minds
and hearts to the things of the spirit.
Coming to Oregon
In Testimony Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and
caused the seal of the State <>f Oregon to be hereunto affixed
this 19th day of November, A. D. 1928.
