Andrew Johnson actually said...

"Let the within recommendations of the Secretary of the Interior be carried into effect."

"Resting and refraining from secular labors on that day, let us reverently and devoutly give thanks to our Heavenly Father for the mercies and blessings with which He has crowned the now closing year."

"In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed."

"Especially let us remember that He has covered our land through all its extent with greatly needed and very abundant harvests."
