Item # 678210

December 12, 1859

NEW YORK TRIBUNE, Dec. 12, 1859 

* Post John Brown execution (hanging)
* Much on the funeral services - burial


Almost the entirety of page 6 is taken up with: "The Burial Of John Brown" "The Passage of the Body to North Alba" "The Funeral" "Speeches of Mr. McKim and Mr. Phillips" "John Brown's Last Will" "Charlestown Intelligence" "Caleb Cushing Slandering John Brown" and a letter from Edwin Coppic to Mrs. Brown.
Page 7 has a report on the quite famous slave ship: "The Slaver Wanderer - Arrest of Capt. Farnum in this City - He is Sent Back to Savannah"
Eight pages, a bit irregular at the spine margin, minor loss an an upper corner of the last leaf, otherwise nice.
