September 21, 1864

THE HOUSTON DAILY TELEGRAPH, Sept. 21, 1864  Newspapers from Texas are very uncommon, particularly from before or during the Civil War. Here is an issue from the midst of the war, one of the earliest war-dated issues we have offered.
The front page begins with war-related reports headed: "By Telegraph". Also within: "An Attack Upon King Cotton" "Items of Interest" and various other reports without headings.
Complete as a single sheet issue, 12 by 17 3/4 inches, very nice condition.

Item from Catalog 353 (released for April 2025)
