John Hunt Morgan in a battle...
Item # 618221
July 22, 1862
DAILY COLUMBUS ENQUIRER, Georgia, July 22, 1862 Certainly one of the less common Confederate titles from the Civil War. Columbus is in Southwest Georgia on the Alabama border very near Montgomery.
Among the various reports inside are: "Letter from J.T.G. includes a report of a: "...recent fight that occurred...between Col. Morgan's forces and 270 men of the 7th Penna. regiment under trhe command of Maj. Thomas Jordan..." with more (see); "Interesting from Fredericksburg" "Progress & Events of the War" "From New Orleans" "A Pretty Little Fight - Twelve or Fifteen Yankees Killed" "The Fate of the Invader" "General T. J. Jackson" and more.
Most of the back page is taken up with the: "Constitution of the State of Georgia, Ratified July 2, 1861".
Four pages, some very light damp staining, very nice condition.
It was in Columbus where the last battle of the Civil War was fought. Note: The Battle of Palmito Ranch in Texas actually occurred weeks after the Battle of Columbus, but the engagement at Palmito Ranch happened after the Confederate government had dissolved and the Confederacy was extinct. In the "Official Records", the Battle of Columbus is referred to as the "closing conflict of the war.
