February 15, 1843
CITIZEN SOLDIER, Philadelphia, Feb. 15, 1843 Printed in the masthead is: "In time of peace prepare for war", a quote by Washington, which sets the tone for this newspaper printed during peacetime. But the Mexican War would loom just 3 years later.
This is the volume 1, number 4 issue of this paper which existed from just January 7 thru December 27, 1843. It is very similar in layout 7 content to the same title printed earlier in Norwich, Vermont.
Eight pages, 16 by 11 1/2 inches, never bound nor trimmed so it folds out to a single sheet, various wear at the folds and margins with some archival repairs.
