THE CHARLESTON MERCURY, South Carolina, Oct. 7, 1864
- Rare Confederate publication
- Origin of the American Civil War
- Jefferson Davis speech
- Columbia, South Carolina
Among the front page reports on the Civil War are: "President Davis in Columbia" "The President's Speech in Columbia" which is quite lengthy; "The Successes of Forrest" "Highly Important From Georgia--The Movement in Sherman's Rear" "Fighting In Louisiana" and more.
Complete as a single sheet issue, full banner masthead, nice condition. From the closing months of the Civil War.
Charleston was a hotbed of secession, with S.C. being the first state to leave the Union. The first shots of the war were fired in Charleston harbor. As a notable slave port, it is not surprising that South Carolina lead the charge in forming the new Confederate States of America.
