Inauguration of Jefferson Davis... Lincoln's progress to Washington...

Item # 703971

February 19, 1861

NEW YORK TIMES, Feb. 19, 1861 The front page has: "The Incoming Administration" "Progress of the President Elect Toward Washington" "The Trip From Buffalo to Albany" with the reporting taking close to half of the page with subheads: "Mr. Lincoln's Speech at Utica" "Reception and Speech at Albany" "Mr. Lincoln's Speech at Rochester" "The Mayor's Address - Mr. Lincoln's Reply" and even more carrying over to the back page. Excellent coverage on his journey from home to Washington, D.C.
But perhaps the best content is found on the back page, with: "Important From Montgomery" "Inauguration of Jefferson Davis as President of the Southern Confederacy" "His Inaugural Address" "Policy of the New Government Foreshadowed" with the report including the text of his inaugural address.
Also, page 4 has: "The Inaugural of President Davis" takes a full column and has nice coverage of the proceedings, with various editorial comments.
Eight pages, nice condition.
