Growth of Cooperstown...

Item # 714373 ·
DUNLAP'S AMERICAN DAILY ADVERTISER, Philadelphia, Nov. 30, 1791  Page 2 has a lengthy extract of a letter from Cooperstown that describes the abundant natural resources in the area and the related businesses, the prosperity and more.
It includes a glowing observation: "...How highly pleasing it is to see this country, which in 1787 was uninhabited, now fully peopled, improved with roads and bridges, and possessing mills, stores, schools and, in short, every convenience that reasonable men could wish for. I frequently observe numbers of people together at raisings, and other collecting occasions..." & much more.
Four pages, nice condition.
