Item # 716186
August 10, 1850
THE ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE, Salem, Ohio, August. 10, 1850  The motto printed in the masthead reads: "No Union With Slaveholders", which sets the tone for the newspaper's theme. This is one of the less common anti-slavery newspapers we have encountered.
Among the articles: "Tale of Cruelty" "Things In Kentucky" "An Incident of the Slave Trade" "Fugitive Slaves" "Abolitionists & the Bible" "Woman's Rights" "The Flying Fugitives" and more.
Page 3 has an interesting article beginning: "The Mormon settlement on Beaver Island, Lake Michigan, now numbers about 1000 persons, and is rapidly increasing..." with more.
Four pages, foxing to a portion of a front page crease, a bit irregular at the blank spine from disbinding with no effect to text.
