THE CRISIS, Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 30, 1863
* Rare pro-South Union paper
Described as "The Hottest Rebel Sheet to be found in the North or the South", this newspaper opposed the war and attracted the hatred of the Republicans and the Lincoln administration. It insisted that slavery could not be prohibited by law. So obnoxious was this paper to Unionists that it was denied circulation in some cities. In 1863 the press was raided by a hateful mob. Among the articles within are: "Mr. Lincoln's Pardons" "Who Said That?" "K.G.C." "The Knights of the Golden Circle" "Complete Exposition of the Order" with much more; "The Suspension of the Writ of Habeas Corpus" "Jack Tar on the Stump" "From the Rocky Mountains" and more.
Eight pages, very nice condition.
