THE NEW-YORK TRIBUNE, May 29, 1868 

* Andrew Johnson 
* Acquitted of his impeachment charge
 

See the photos below for the nice front page, first column heads concerning the end of the impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson.

The headline reads: "End Of Impeachment" "Verdict Of Acquittal Entered" with subheads: "Adjournment Without Day After a Vote on the Second and Third Articles--The Vote the Same as on the Eleventh."

This text takes fully 2 1/2 columns on the front page with the most significant statement being near the top reading in part: "...The verdict was acquittal for the respondent..." (see photos).

Other news of the day throughout.

This issue was never bound, is complete in 8 pages, and is in great condition.
