January 23, 1863
LOUISVILLE DAILY JOURNAL, Kentucky, Jan. 23, 1863 Louisville is difficult to categorize as Union or Confederate during the Civil War as, depending on the time, there were factions within the city supporting both. To placate both sides the two leading newspapers took their stands: the "Courier" was very much pro-Confederate & the "Journal" was more pro-Union. This is the Yankee-leaning newspaper.
Articles include: "Report of a Battle Being in Progress" "Gen. Hooker Reported Mortally Wounded" "Gen. Porter dismissed from the Service" "Emancipation in the District of Columbia" "Rebel News of Military Operations" and much more.
Four pages, large folio size, never bound nor trimmed, various folds, wear at margins with some archival mends, and other margin & fold tears.
