Inauguration of Rutherford B. Hayes, in his home state newspaper...



Item # 687886

March 06, 1877

THE CLEVELAND LEADER, Ohio, March 6, 1877  

* President Rutherford B. Hayes
* Inauguration - inaugural address


A great issue on coverage of the Hayes election as President. And great to have this content in an Ohio newspaper, as this was Rutherford B. Hayes' home state. In fact he was governor of Ohio for a term.
The front page has one column heads: "HAYES' INAUGURATION" "All The Forms & Ceremonies Pass Off in Fine Style" "Full Description of the Proceedings" "The Inaugural Address--Policy of the Administration" "The New President & Party Leaders" and more.
Further on has details of: "The Procession. En Route For the Capitol" and then the; "Inaugural Address which carries over to page 4 where is also: "The Oath" and then: "Return to The White House".
Eight pages, slightly irregular at the blank spine from disbinding, very nice condition.
