A newspaper for the Dorps of Schenectady...

Item # 697740 ·
THE DORPIAN, Schenectady, New York, Dec. 21, 1867  Schenectady was once known as ‘Dorp,’ a Dutch word meaning rural village. And a person from Schenectady was a 'Dorpian', hence the name of this newspaper. 
This is the volume 1, number 16 issue. It began Sept. 6, 1867 and seems to have ended on March, 1868. This title is not listed in Gregory's 'Union List of Newspapers'.
Eight pages, 9 by 12 inches, never bound nor trimmed, scattered foxing, good condition.
