THE DAILY SOUTHERN GUARDIAN, Columbia, South Carolina, Nov. 22, 1862
* Rare Confederate publication
A rather rare title and great that it has the word “Southern”.
The front page is mostly taken up with ads & military notices but it also has: "From Georgia - Reinforcements Arriving--Glorious News" as well as a rousing: "Proclamation From Gen. Beauregard" to the people of Georgia, noting: "Arise for the defence of your native soil!...Obstruct & destroy all roads in Sherman's front, flank & rear..." with more, signed in type: G. T. Beauregard.
The back page has much on the news with: "Hood's Escape from Sherman" "Sherman's Campaign" "Plan of the Campaign Against Columbus" "Sherman's Roland For Beauregard's Oliver" "Sherman" "Sheridan's Movement" "Grant's Doings" "From the West" "From Georgia" "The War News" and even more.
Complete as a single sheet issue with wide, untrimmed margins. A very small library stamp above the masthead, some clear tape to the front page, good condition.
