ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT, Sept. 5, 1884
* Abraham Lincoln in the Black Hawk War
Page 4 has: "How Lincoln's Life Was Saved" "A Timely Shot Fired in the Black Hawk War Saves our First Republican President". A very interesting account from when Abraham Lincoln was involved in the Black Hawk War of 1832.
This is followed by: "Adventure With A Buffalo" "A St. Louis Merchant Has an Exciting Episode in Manitoba" which notes in part: "...buffalo attracted Mr. Kelly's attention... thought he would like to fraternize with the monarch of the plains & pat him pleasantly on the back..." with much more.
Also within: "A Kentucky Desperado Shoots His Brother" "A Brace of Bigamists" "Brutally Outraged" and many more crime reports.
Twelve pages, nice condition.
