August 17, 1847

DAILY NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER, Washington, D.C., Aug. 17, 1847 

* Samuel Brannan - American Settler
* Mormons settling along San Joaquin River


Page 3 has one-third of a column headed: "The Mormons" which is a very interesting report on the news of the Mormons in settling in the West. Mention of several being excommunicated, and that some had: "...commenced a settlement on the river San Joaquin, a large & beautiful stream emptying into the Bay of San Francisco..." with more.
Four pages, very nice condition.
