December 06, 1828

BATON ROUGE GAZETTE, Louisiana, Dec. 6, 1828  An interesting bi-lingual newspaper as the front leaf is in English and the back leaf--with its own masthead & dateline: "Gazette de Baton Rouge" is entirely in French. The top of the front page has an illustrated: "$20 Reward" ad for a runaway slave, followed by another lengthy ad for the sale of: "About Twenty-Eight SLAVES" with details (see).
Complete in 4 pages, various foxing, generally nice condition.
