NEW YORK TIMES, November 9, 1864
* Abraham Lincoln elected president (2nd term)
* 1st report plus Civil War reporting
This issue has a great front page, as it is taken up, in its entirety, with the election results for the presidency. Among the great first column heads are: "VICTORY ! " "Glorious Result Yesterday" "Election of Lincoln and Johnson" "Terrible Defeat of McClellan" "The Union Triumphant" "New York for Lincoln and Fenton" "Heavy Union Gains" "The Vote of the City" and more.
The majority of the ftpg. is taken up with election returns for various wards, counties, and states (see). Page 4 has more reporting concerning the election, with mention in the editorial as well. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete in 8 pages, very nice condition.
