NEW YORK TIMES, Aug. 2, 1865  The top of the front page has: "EMANCIPATION JUBILEE" "Great Rejoicing Among the Colored People" "20,000 Jubilants Celebrate Their Souls in Brooklyn" "Addresses of Wm. Howard Day, Fred. Douglass, and Rev. Mr. Pennington" "The Praying Pic-Nic and the Dancing Darkies" "A Great Day, No Trouble, Fun, Frolic, Music and Happiness".
This text takes one-third of the front page and 1 1/2 columns on the back page. The "Speech of Mr. Douglass" is on the back page.
August 1 was the anniversary of: "...absolute freedom of every slave in the West Indian dominion. Rejoice, why not? To them it was the birthday of liberty..." and much more.
Eight pages, very nice condition.
