THE WEEKLY HERALD, New York, March 11, 1865  

* President Abraham Lincoln inauguration
* Second inaugural address in full text 

The front page features a large Civil War map headed: "CAPTURE OF THE REBEL GENERAL EARLY. Sheridan's Ne Movement Up the Shenandoah--It Success--The Race for Lynchburg--Tightening of the Lines Around Richmond." Much related report on the war events as well.
But the prime content is the report on Lincoln's second inauguration, with front page column heads: "WASHINGTON" "Second Inauguration of President Lincoln" "Scenes at the White House, in the Streets & at the Capitol" "THE ADDRESS" "Washington, March 4, 1861, and Washington, March 4, 1865" "The Contrast" "The Grand Reception in the Evening "All Classes & Colors Represented at the White House" "The President Shakes Hands With Everybody" and more.
The reporting is extensive with much detail of the events, carrying over to take most of page 2 with subheads: "Formation of the Procession" "The March Through Pennsylvania Ave." "Scenes at the Capitol" "The President's Room" "What They Said" "Entering the Senate Chamber" "Back To The White House" and much more.
Included in all the detailed reporting is the full text of Lincoln's inaugural address which includes the immortal words: "...With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wound...".
Other war-related content as well, some shown in the photos.
Complete as an 8 page issue, never bound nor trimmed so it folds out to a single sheet, very nice condition.

Background: The March 11, 1865 edition of The Weekly Herald provides comprehensive coverage of Abraham Lincoln’s second inauguration, capturing a monumental turning point in American history just weeks before the end of the Civil War. Front-page and interior reporting highlights the stark contrast between the tense, fragile Washington of March 4, 1861—when the nation stood on the brink of disunion—and the celebratory, victorious atmosphere of March 4, 1865. Central to the issue is the full text of Lincoln’s concise yet profound inaugural address, culminating in his iconic call for reconciliation: "With malice towards none, with charity for all..." Beyond the speech, the paper details the day’s extensive festivities, including the procession down Pennsylvania Avenue, packed scenes at the Capitol, and the historically inclusive evening reception at the White House where "all classes and colors" gathered to meet the President—an landmark event where African Americans, including Frederick Douglass, attended the public reception for the first time.
