THE LIBERATOR, Boston, Sept. 23, 1864 This is the famous anti-slavery newspaper by famed abolitionist publisher William Lloyd Garrison. The masthead features two engravings, one of a slave auction and the other showing slaves being emancipated.
The most notable report would be a page 3: "Letter From Frederick Douglass" written to William Lloyd Garrison, publisher of this newspaper. The purpose of the letter is to clarify and correct comments made in the previous issue concerning Douglass and the British press concerning Lincoln.
It is likely this is the only newspaper in which this letter will be found.
Other items include; "The Freedmen In Louisiana" "The Conflict & Its Character" "The Rights of Colored Soldiers - Letter of Gen. Butler to the Rebel Commissioners or Exchange" being quite lengthy; "A Talk With Abraham Lincoln" and more.
