February 22, 1861
NEW YORK HERALD, New York, NY, February 22, 1861

* Abraham Lincoln heads to Washington D.C.
* President elect
* Pre civil war tensions

The front page has the following one column headlines:

* THE PRESIDENTIAL PROGRESS
* Departure of Mr. Lincoln and Party from New York
* The Receptions at Jersey City, Newark, Trenton and Philadelphia
* The Addresses of Welcome and Mr. Lincoln's Replies
* What May be Expected from Mr. Lincoln's Inaugural

and more. Text takes up most of the front page. Too much to photograph. Great reading.

Other news of the day with much on the pre civil war tensions.

Minor staining, otherwise in nice condition. 8 pages.
