* Abraham Lincoln leaves Springfield, Illinois
* Starts his journey for Washington D.C.
Page 5 has a nice stack of column headlines and reports on Abraham Lincoln's trip from his home in Illinois to Washington. Heads include: "THE PRESIDENT ELECT EN ROUTE" "His Farewell to His Neighbors" with the text included here; "Receptions On the Route" "His Letter to Gov. Morgan" "Important Speech at Indianapolis" "The Preservation of The Union".
The great text takes over 1 1/2 columns, only portions shown in the photos.
Eight pages, a bit of damp staining, nice condition.
