Commerical Point, Ohio lynching....



Item # 614212

September 02, 1880

ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT, Missouri, September 2, 1880

* Commercial Point, Ohio
* Pickaway County


This uncommon Midwestern title has news of the day with many advertisements. The front page has an article headed: "TRACED TO A TREE" "Judge Lynch Holds Court in the Interior of Ohio" "The Body of a Bully Found Dangling in Mid-Air"
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, a little irregular along the spine, nice condition.
