THE NATIONAL ADVOCATE, New York, 1820 While the issue sent will have various news of the day and a wealth of period ads, the significance of the newspapers itself is amplified by its publisher, Naphtali Phillips, a prominent Jewish-American journalist of the early Republic who famously pulled the very first printed copy of Washington's Farewell Address off the press in 1796. He was also married to the daughter of Moses Seixas—the famed leader of Newport’s Touro Synagogue whose historic 1790 letter to George Washington prompted the President's immortal declaration that the U.S. government "gives to bigotry no sanction."
