July 31, 1847
THE CHARLESTON COURIER, South Carolina, July 31, 1847 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, one headed: "For Sale--Land Negroes, and Stock of all Kinds..." each having various particulars. The ads are shown in the photos.
Four pages, archival strengthening across the central fold on pages 2 & 3, small binding slits at the blank spine, nice condition.
