Item # 712984
December 28, 1795
SPOONER'S VERMONT JOURNAL, Windsor, Dec. 28, 1795 Almost the entire front page is taken up with the President's: "SPEECH" being George Washington's annual state-of-the-union address for the year 1795, a tradition he started in his first administration and which continues to this day.
The "Speech" is prefaced with: "This day, precisely at 12 o'clock, The President of the United States met both Houses of Congress in the hall of the Representatives, and addressed them in the following...".
Page 2 contains the full list of the Senators & Representatives by state. Also a letter from the Senate responding to Washington's Address, this followed by the President's response signed in type: G. Washington.
Four pages, never bound nor trimmed, nice condition.
