April 18, 1789
THE DAILY ADVERTISER, New York, April 18, 1789
* Vice President elect John Adams
* Journey to Nation's capital (NYC)
* Early United States Congress
Page 2 has a brief & inconspicuous item: "We are informed that his Excellency the Vice President is now on his way from Boston to this city and may assuredly be expected on Monday next." This is followed by reporting of discussions from the earliest days of the federal congress, one bit including: "...that the salt tax would be odious--he supposed that all taxes were odious, & that people in general were not well pleased with paying any duties whatever..." with much more.
Four pages, very nice condition.
