Serious Trouble, Schmed ✓
I shall not be encumbered in having it done and shall probably proceed to be over by tomorrow without further delay.
I have the time the Sin Most Thedint Stumple Devant Army & Make olation
Copy of Proclamation - 21 MAY 19
We halt the English barbarians who are about to enter our boundaries and take our land, and will cause us endless woe. Day and night we fear the approaching danger. Artfully people are dissatisfied at this and have determined to resist the barbarians.
If our arms are not good firearms we shall be unable to oppose the enemy. We have appointed an exercise ground and gathered all together as patriots to drill with firearms. To encourage proficiency, rewards will be given. On the one hand, we shall be saving ourselves from possible defeat by foreign foes and helping the Government; on the other, we shall be saving ourselves from future trouble. Let all our friends and natives bring their firearms to the ground and do what they can to extirpate the traitors. Our ancestors will be pleased, and so will our neighbours. This is our sincere wish. Practice takes place every day.
First prize. One gauze coat. A packet of 1000 crackers
Second prize. One pair of brown gauzy trousers. Packet of 500 crackers
Third prize. One straw hat.
