NEW YORK TRIBUNE, Feb. 12, 1861 Page 5 has a nice stack of column headlines and reports on Abraham Lincoln's trip from his home in Illinois to Washington. They include: "THE PRESIDENT-ELECT EN ROUTE" "His Farewell to His Neighbors" with the text included here; "Receptions On the Route" and "His Letter to Gov. Morgan".
This is fine coverage of his travels toward Washington, D.C. and includes paraphrases from one of his speeches.
There are also a number of reports concerning the work of various Southern states towards leaving the Union including; "Jeff. Davis en Route to Montgomery" "The Pro-Slavery Rebellion" "Peace & Compromises" "From South Carolina--Letting Sumter Alone" "The Slave-Holders' Federal Constitution" "The Free States Opposed To All Compromise" and more.
Eight pages, binding indents at the blank spine, nice condition.
