Citizens from across Cambridge will gather tomorrow night for a special Thanksgiving service at St. Peter's Episcopal Church on Mass. Ave. at Sellers St. across from the City Hall at 7:30 p.m.
Cambridge Mayor Francis H. Duehay '55 issued a special proclamation of Thanksgiving two weeks ago announcing the service.
"We acknowledge that even admidst Peril of financial Hardship facing our city and the new Threat of Nuclear War facing the City and the World, we as yet have such Abundance and such Peace as to rejoice." Duehay stated in the proclamation.
The Mayor continued. "The citizens of Cambridge gladly continue the Heritage of rendering Thanks to Almighty God for all the Blessings we enjoy amidst the alarming Crises of our own Day."
Duehay and members of the city council last night urged all Cambridge residents and students to attend the Thanksgiving Eve service. "I remember when there used to be enormous events, with people from all across Cambridge." Duehay said, stressing the service may not be aimed at any particular denomination.
