Royal Proclamation Calls Public Thanksgiving in 1740
The document proclaims a public day of Thanksgiving for God’s mercies in the war, orders a formal prayer for observance across England, Wales, and Berwick upon Tweed, and directs bishops to organize religious services with penalties for neglect. It also notes military updates from the War, including sieges and strategic moves in Spain and France.
