Excerpt from Messages and Documents of J. Frank Hanly: Governor of Indiana, January 9, 1905-January 11, 1909 The oath of office which I have just taken here in your presence, in the presence of this concourse of our fellow citizens, and in the presence of Almighty God, like unto that so recently taken by each of you in your respective chambers, is a most solemn and binding obligation - one well calculated to impel whoever takes it to high and patriotic service. Cherishing as I do a belief in the existence of a just God, in the teachings of the Christ, and in the immortality of my own soul, the words so help me God frame the most sacred pledge my lips can utter or my mind conceive. That oath now lies upon my conscience, and there it shall continue until the commis sion I have received shall be returned to the people who gave it. If I fail, and in some things I may fail, not one of my countrymen, including all those who have so generously trusted me, will be so deeply grieved as I myself shall be.
