October 29, 1862

DAILY COLUMBUS ENQUIRER, Georgia, Oct. 29, 1862 

* Very rare Confederate title
* General Braxton Bragg


Certainly one of the less common Confederate titles from the Civil War. Columbus is in Southwest Georgia on the Alabama border very near Montgomery.
Among the various items inside are: "The Yankee Draft" "Progress & Events of the War" "Columbus Guards & Columbus  Volunteers" "Confederate States Senator" "Affairs in Tennessee--Bragg Ordered to Richmond" "Gen. John H. Morgan Hangs the Federal Provost Marshal of Lexington" "From Bragg's Army" and more.
Most of the back page is taken up with the: "Constitution of the State of Georgia, Ratified July 2, 1861".
Four pages, even toning, various damp staining, otherwise good.

It was in Columbus where the  last battle of the Civil War was fought. Note: The Battle of Palmito Ranch in Texas actually occurred weeks after the Battle of Columbus, but the engagement at Palmito Ranch happened after the Confederate government had dissolved and the Confederacy was extinct. In the "Official Records", the Battle of Columbus is referred to as the "closing conflict of the war.
