56.-Gov. Clark's proclamation.
North-Carolinians!
Our country needs your aid for its protection and defence against an invading foe. The President of the confederate States has made a requisition upon our State to complete her quota of troops in the field.
Our own borders are invaded by the enemy in force, now threatening to an advance to deprive us of liberty, property, and all that we hold dear, as a self-governing and free people.
We must resist him at all hazards and by every means in our power.
He wages a war for our subjugation — a war forced upon us in wrong and prosecuted without right, and in a spirit of vengeful wickedness without a parallel in the history of warfare among civilized nations.
As you value your rights of self-government and all the blessings of freedom — the hallowed endearments of home and fireside, of family and kindred — I call upon you to rally to their defence, and to sustain the noble and sacred cause in which we are engaged.
