October 10, 1776
THE PENNSYLVANIA EVENING POST, Philadelphia, Oct. 10, 1776  The entire front page is an interesting dialogue concerning Pennsylvania creating a new form of government. This carries over to take most of pg. 2. Pg. 3 has various items from Congress, dated Oct. 3, 1776, including the borrowing of $5 million, signed in type by: John Hancock, President. (see). The entire back page is taken up with ads, including one for the sale of: "...a likely, strong, healthy Negro Man about 25 years of age...".
Four pages, measures about 8 by 10 in., very light damp staining in a lower corner, generally in very nice, clean condition.
