Item # 699701
October 27, 1859
NEW YORK HERALD, Oct. 27, 1859 The top of page 3 has many nice column heads including: "The Harper's Ferry Outbreak" "Arraignment of Old Brown and His Companions on Charges of Conspiracy, Treason and Murder" "Brown Appeals for a Postponement of His Trial" "Arrest of the Fugitive Cook" The Kansas Work of the Abolitionists Exposed" and more.
Over half of page 3 is taken up with a wealth of reports on the Harper's Ferry situation, photos showing just portions. Additionally, page 4 continues with the reports with many subheads, and then page 6 as well, which includes: "More Disclosures from Harper's Ferry-- Two Years'
Secret History of Abolitionism" and: "The Abolition Invasion of Harper's Ferry--A Lesson from the Slaves".
An uncommonly great amount of reporting in this issue
Twelve pages, irregular at the bottom of the spine, nice condition.
