Item # 702814
November 19, 1804
BOSTON GAZETTE, Nov. 19, 1804
* President Thomas Jefferson
Page 2 contains the state-of-the-union address of the President headed: "Message", signed in type at its conclusion: Tho. Jefferson.
A portion of his address deals with the new Louisiana Territory just purchased from France the previous year. One paragraph begins: "With the Indian tribes established within our newly acquired limits, I have deemed it necessary to open conferences for the purpose of establishing a good understanding & neighbourly relations between us. So far as we have yet learned we have reason to believe that their dispositions are generally favorable and friendly...".
Four pages, never-trimmed margins, very nice condition.
Note: President Thomas Jefferson delivered his fourth State of the Union Address to Congress on November 8, 1804. In this written message, Jefferson provided an overview of the nation's status, focusing on foreign affairs, domestic governance, territorial expansion, and fiscal health.
