Description

This print is the official proclamation by the governor of Massachusetts setting aside February 12, 1921, to be observed as Lincoln Day "with the recommendation that it be appropriately observed in the churches, in the schools, by the fireside, and wherever our people come together, to the end that the memory of his devotion to ideals, his love of truth, and his courage to battle for right, may live forever in this Commonwealth."
