BETHLEHEM DAILY TIMES, Pennsylvania, July 6, 1876  Page 2 has a very historic, first report on the Custer Massacre, with one column heads: "General Custer Killed" "Painful News From the Frontier--Another Battle Fought with the Sioux, Resulting in the Slaughter of the Brave Young Cavalry Officer & over 200 of his Men" with the report taking one-third of a column with various details (see photos). The balance of this complete, 4 pg. newspaper is taken up with other news & ads of the day. Folio size, great condition.
