Much on the capture of Toronto...

Item # 713785 ·
MASSACHUSETTS SPY OR WORCESTER GAZETTE, May 26, 1813  Page 2 has nice reports on this historic capture of York, present-day Toronto, Canada. It includes a report headed: "Capture Of York - Official Account" beginning: "Sir--We are in full possession of this place after a sharp conflict..." signed: H. Dearborn.
This is followed by another much lengthier report also signed by Dearborn, and two reports signed in type by: Isaac Chauncey. Included also are the: "Terms of Capitulation...". 
Page 3 has a related article: "Capture Of York" as well as other War of 1812 reports.
Four pages, light damp stain to the bottom portion, archival strengthening to a portion of the blank spine, good condition.
