WHEREAS, In the Summer of eighteen hundred
and sixty-four, a raid was made into Maryland
by the Confederate Army, under the command of
General McCausland, in which the city of Hagers-
town, of said State, was threatened to be burned
by said McCausland, unless a large sum of money
and a large amount of clothing should be advanced
to the said McCausland, as indemnity for the secu-
rity of the said city from destruction; and whereas,
the Mayor and Council of said city, and its inhab-
itants, did pay the money and furnish the clothing
so required by the said McCausland, to save the
said city from the threatened calamity, the entire
amount of which has since been assumed by the

Preamble.
