Death of President Ulysses S. Grant...



Item # 691370

July 24, 1885

DAILY JOURNAL, Evansville, Indiana, July 24, 1885  

* General Ulysses S. Grant death w/ portrait print

The entire front page--and continuing on page 4--is great coverage of the death of President Ulysses S. Grant. All columns on all 8 pages have black mourning rules.
The front page begins with a print of him, and heads: "CONQUERED!" "The King of 'Terrors Wins the Wage of War" "After A Brave & Soldier-Like Struggle" "By the Greatest Captain of Modern Times" "Gen Grant Passes Peacefully Away to the Realms Beyond" and more.
Eight pages, a bit irregular at the spine, good condition.
