I understand he figured another holiday might help sagging sales of

I need to catch up on many messages, hopefully tonight.... but just
wanted to send this off.....

It was November of 1777 that Samuel Adams spoke these words before the
United States Congress: "It is therefore recommended. to set apart a
Thursday . for solemn thanksgiving and praise, that with one heart and
one voice the good people may express the grateful feelings of their
hearts."


         Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!
