June 27, 1874

NEW YORK TIMES, June 27, 1874  The front page has: "The Indians" "The Death of Cochise--His Advice To His People" which is a brief article. This is followed by: "The Sioux In Dakota and Custer's Calvary" which is datelined June 26, the day after the Custer Massacre, and includes--ironically--"...does not look as if the Sioux in Dakota are particularly anxious for a fight with the Seventh Cavalry...Gen. Custer's expedition to the Black Hills would have started last Sunday if there had been any military necessity therefor...".
Eight pages, four notebook binding holes at the left side do not affect the mentioned article, light toning at the margins, nice condition.
