new hats and heavy boots
all at bargain prices.
:43:08
But most of all, we call upon Thee,
Lord Jehovah,
:43:13
O, God of Battles,
:43:15
to aid Thy people
against the Tories,
:43:20
for I have disturbing news for you
that will sorrow this Sabbath.
:43:28
General Washington has advised us
that an enemy army
:43:33
of many Tories and savage Indians
:43:36
is even now on its way
to our beloved valley.
:43:42
Every man capable of bearing arms
between the ages of 16 and 60
:43:48
will report tomorrow morning
to General Herkimer,
:43:53
at which time a regiment
of Washington's Continental Army
:43:58
will arrive from Albany, under
Colonel Fischer, to help us.
:44:06
Any man failing to report for duty
will be promptly hanged.
:44:11
Amen.
:44:17
You stick close to Mrs. McKlennar
and do what she says.
:44:21
Yes, Gil.
:44:27
I'd better go now.
:44:32
Watch out for those new apple trees.
:44:44
Gil!
