ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT, Missouri, April 23, 1883

* Beauregard & Wesson MS Mississippi
* Copiah County tornado disaster


This uncommon Midwestern title has news of the day with many advertisements. Page 2 has an article headed: "WRECKED BY A CYCLONE" "The Town of Wesson, Miss., Blown to Pieces" "Beauregard, an Adjoining Village, Completely Destroyed" and more. (see)
This issue is not fragile as newsprint back then was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Complete in 10 pages, minor irregularity along the spine, very nice condition.
