Henry Wadsworth Longfellow sails for Havre, France...



Item # 652811

April 28, 1842

NEW YORK HERALD, Feb. 24, 1842  Although quite inconspicuous, page 3 shows "Passengers Sailed... Havre... Ship Villa de Lyon... Professor Longfellow, Cambridge". We believe this to be H. W. Longfellow, and the destination to be Le Havre, France.
Other news of the day along with period advertising is found throughout. See images for details.
Complete in 4 pages; nice condition.
