This 8 page newspaper has one column headings on the front page: "Lincoln's Body Was Hidden", "A Secret Of Many Years Made Public By The Guard Of Honor" and "When Thieves Tried to Steal the Remains...." This is coverage on the remains of Abraham Lincoln being placed in the newly built crypt beneath the floor of Memorial Hall (Lincoln Tomb).
Other news and advertisements of the day. Light browning with some margin wear, mostly along spine, otherwise good. Should be handled with care.
