THE WEEKLY REGISTER, Baltimore, Nov. 6, 1813 Near the back under the heading: "Events of the War" is a very brief yet significant notice reading: "A letter to the editor from Chilicothe states it as a thing believed, that Brig. Gen. Tecumseh was killed in the fight on the Thames."
There are also many other items on the War of 1812 including a "Proclamation" signed by. Wm. H. Harrison and reports with small heads including: "Military--Hampton's Army" "The Lakes" "General Orders" "American Prizes" & "Naval". Also included is a full column text of the "Speech Of Tecumseh" rarely found in period newspapers.
Sixteen pages, 6 by 9 1/4 inches, small hole in the front leaf, scattered foxing.
As noted in Wikipedia, this title: "...(was) one of the most widely-circulated magazines in the United States...Devoted primarily to politics...considered an important source for the history of the period."
