Spanish-American War is about to end...



Item # 700361

August 03, 1898

THE ALLENTOWN DEMOCRAT, Pennsylvania, Aug. 3, 1898

* Spanish-America War ending
* Independence of Cuba


 The front page has most of a column taken up with: "THE WAR" ""Spain Now Sues for Peace" "Overtures Presented to the President by French Ambassador".
But the predominant feature of the front page are the two prints on the Spanish-American War including a large print of: "Major General Nelson A. Miles" and a print of; "What Our Brave Boys Faced At Santiago De Cuba".
Page 2 has some editorializing on the Spanish-American War with: "SPAIN SUES FOR PEACE" "The Terms of the United States Accepted, and the War Will Speedily End".
Four pages, printed on surprisingly high-quality newsprint still in quite nice condition, large folio size, minor binding slits at the blank spine, good condition. Folder size noted is for the issue folded in half.
