November 08, 1865

NEW YORK TRIBUNE, Nov. 8, 1865  The top of the back page has: "ANDERSONVILLE" "The Case Of Wirz" "He is To Be Hanged on Friday" "How the Accused Received His Sentence". Henry Wirz was the infamous warden of the Confederate prison camp at Andersonville, accused of horrendous atrocities committed against northern prisoners of war.
Other Reconstruction news as well including: "Jeff Davis". Eight pages, some printing creases do not cause loss of text, nice condition.
