FEDERAL GAZETTE & BALTIMORE DAILY ADVERTISER, May 16, 1796  

* Rare 18th century American publication

The front page is taken up with ads including 23 illustrated ship ads.
Page 3 has discussion from Congress which includes: "...Resolved, 'That it will be expedient to abolish the tax on spirits distilled from materials of the growth or produce of the United States..." with more. The back page has a "Forty Dollars Reward" for a runaway mulatto man, with much detail.
Four pages, very nice condition.
