She was taken about 80 miles off the Congo River..." with more detail.
Other articles include: "The Secession Movement--Picture of a Home at the South--Letters From Charleston" "The Presidential Contest" which has a chart of votes by state. The report begins: "It is morally certain that the seven Presidential Electors chosen on the Pacific slope have voted...for Lincoln and Hamlin...".
Also a report from the Pony Express; "She is Good For Nothing, by Hans Christian Andersen" and: "A Slave-holding Republic".
Eight pages, some minor damp staining, minor margin wear, generally good condition.
