George Washington... Alexander Hamilton...
Item # 705640
September 01, 1790
GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES, New York, Sept. 1, 1790 The top of the front page contains an Act of Congress, headed with a heraldic eagle & signed in type by the President: GEORGE WASHINGTON as well as by John Adams & Thomas Jefferson, making this a nice issue for display.
Page 3 has a nice article on: "The President's Departure", on his way to Mount Vernon. He may not have returned to New York following the visit, as the capital was moving from New York to Philadelphia at this time.
Relating to this move, the bottom of page 3 has a neat item: "All persons having demands against the Household of the PRESIDENT of the United States are requested to exhibit their accounts for settlement at his late Dwelling on Broad-Way before the 15th of September."
The back page has a report from the "Treasury Department" signed by: Alexander Hamilton.
Four pages, minor rubbing to the front page, some light foxing, good condition.
