Item # 689247

March 04, 1867

THE NEW YORK TIMES, March 4, 1867  Taking more than 3 columns on page 3, under the heading "MILITARY GOVERNMENTS BILL", is the complete text of President Andrew Johnson's veto of the Military Reconstruction Bill (Reconstruction Act of 1867 - March 3rd edition), signed in block type: ANDREW JOHNSON. His veto garnered enough votes to be overridden. The vote to override and two additional related articles are found on inside pages.
Other news of the day is found throughout.
Four pages, binding holes along the left blank margin, one small stain on the article, nice condition. See images for details.
