December 24, 1862

WESTERN CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, Cincinnati, Ohio, Dec. 24, 1862 

* Battle of Fredericksburg, Virginia
* Robert E. Lee vs. Ambrose E. Burnside


Although the title would suggest mostly religious content, there is also much reporting on the on-going Civil War.
The front page has: "The Great Battle At Fredericksburg" which takes nearly 3 columns with many subheads including: "Scenes In Fredericksburg" "A General Advance Ordered" and more.
Much more war-related content inside including: "The War For the Union" "The Situation on the Rappahannock" and a lengthy article: "Mr. Stanton on Contrabands", referring to slaves.
Eight pages, a bit of foxing, nice condition.
