THE CHARLESTON COURIER, South Carolina, Aug. 16, 1847
* Rare antebellum publication
In 14 years this city would be the hotbed for secession from the Union, not surprising given it was the largest American point of disembarkation for the trans-Atlantic slave trade.
Page 3 has four slave-related ads: "Negroes to Hire..." "For Sale--Land, Negroes, and Stock of all Kinds..." and: "Ten Dollars Reward--Runaway from the subscriber...his negro woman Rinah..." & yet another, each noting particulars.
Four pages, archival strengthening across the central fold on pages 2 & 3, nice condition.
