October 01, 1796
THE COLUMBIAN CENTINEL, Boston, Oct. 1, 1796 Page 2 has a great item reacting to Washington's recent--and historic--Farewell Address, beginning: "We cannot refuse to notice the Address of our worthy President. With flowing tears we attentively examine an Address, which demands our admiration, while it seals our affections. His sentiments will be written on our hearts..." with more fine content.
A page 2 report from Pennsylvania begins: "...Mr. C. W. Peale has obtained a patent for his invention of a Wooden Bridge of very simple structure, which needs no scantling to support an arch of any length desired...". A few more details.
Four pages, some damp staining & foxing, irregular at the right margins affects some words but nothing in the mentioned reports.
