NILES' NATIONAL REGISTER, Baltimore, Nov. 30, 1839 

* African slaves

Inside has a full page of very detailed coverage of the trial headed: "Slaves Per Amistad" at Hartford. A great wealth of detail. This famous slave ship and the revolt of its occupants was not only a notable legal case at the time, but in 1997 was made into feature length movie by Stephen Spielberg.
Sixteen pages, 8 12 by 12 inches, very nice condition.
