Mayor's Office
City of Kansas, Oct. 10, 1864.
In view of the critical condition of affairs, I hereby call upon the citizens of Kansas City to close all places of business at 4 o'clock P. M. this day, and every day until further orders, and assemble at the Court House at that hour, attach themselves to some one of the Citizen Guard Companies, and drill.
They will bring with them private arms such as have them, shot-guns, rifles, etc. Every effort is being made by the military authorities to supply arms and ammunition, and it is doubly necessary to know the force to be supplied.
It is hoped that a general and cheerful acquiescence will be given, as where all are in danger, there can be none excused.
R. T. VAN HORN, Mayor. BERNARD DONNELLY, Register.
