Pair of issues on the creation of the American Tract Society...



Item # 639967

May 14, 1825

NEW YORK OBSERVER, May 14 and June 18, 1825 

* American Tract Society creation

A pair of notable issues. The May 14 issue of this religiously-themed newspaper has about half of page 2 taken up with the creation of the "American Tract Society", whose formal beginning was on May 11. Included is their "Constitution" and well as the: Laying The Corner Stone" which was in New York City. Much more as well.
The June 18 issue contains on the front page the first Address of the American Tract Society, taking most of the ftpg. and a bit of pg. 2.
