DAILY COLUMBUS ENQUIRER, Georgia, Nov. 11, 1862
* Very rare title
Certainly one of the less common Confederate titles from the Civil War. Columbus is in Southwest Georgia on the Alabama border very near Montgomery.
Among the various reports inside are the continuation of a lengthy address from the governor of Georgia; "Georgia Legislature" "Letter From 'J' " concerning the Civil War; "The Country Subjugated Unless we all Work for It!" "Advance of the Enemy in the East" "Interesting From Pensacola" "Progress & Events of the War" "From Northern Virginia" and more.
Four pages, even toning, various damp staining, otherwise good.
It was in Columbus where the last battle of the Civil War was fought. Note: The Battle of Palmito Ranch in Texas actually occurred weeks after the Battle of Columbus, but the engagement at Palmito Ranch happened after the Confederate government had dissolved and the Confederacy was extinct. In the "Official Records", the Battle of Columbus is referred to as the "closing conflict of the war. (see hyperlink)
