THE CRISIS, Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 24, 1861 This was an anti-war newspaper that insisted slavery should not be abolished, so consequently much content has an anti-North bias.
Described as "The Hottest Rebel Sheet to be found in the North or the South", this newspaper opposed the war and attracted the hatred of the Republicans and the Lincoln administration. It was denied circulation in some cities. In 1863 the press was raided by a hateful mob.
Among the articles: "War News of the Week" "Fremont's Accounts & Fortifications Suspended" "How Secessionists are Made in Ohio" "Lexington After the Surrender" & much more.
