Transcription:&#13;
Resolved -- That we cherish with gratitude the recollection of those patriotic actions by which our independence was declared and achieved, and deem it our duty specially to commemorate by a public celebration in this town, on the 19th of April next, the fiftieth anniversary of Concord Battle, in which the enemies of freedom were first met and forcibly repulsed by brave Americans -- Passed. </text>

Order of Exercises at the Union Celebration of the Nineteenth of April, 1775, On the Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of thtay day, At Concord, 1850.&#13;
&#13;
Voluntary by the Band.&#13;
Prayer—by the Rev. J. T. Woodbury.&#13;
&#13;
Hymn. &#13;
(To be sung by the Audience to the tune of Old Hundred.)&#13;
O God, supreme o'er earth and skies,&#13;
To Thee our fathers' suppliant eyes&#13;
Were rais'd for help, when loud the alarm&#13;
Of battle call'd the brave to arm&#13;
&#13;
Here, on this consecrated ground,&#13;
Where sleeps their martyr'd dust around,&#13;
Their sons exulting raise to Thee&#13;
Their grateful hymn of Jubilee&#13;
&#13;
The blood that dyed that day the field,&#13;
A nation's independence seal'd&#13;
That blood sent up its cry to Thee,&#13;
A nation's pledge of Victory.&#13;
&#13;
Our father's deeds, in deathless song,&#13;
Time in his course shall bear along;&#13;
Their sons, still happy, brave and free,&#13;
Shall own their boundless debt to Thee.&#13;
&#13;
Oration by the Hon. Robert Rantoul, Jr.&#13;
