Item # 706592
September 29, 1814
THE TIMES, London, England, Sept. 29, 1814 Page 2 has a report headed: "City Of Washington Destroyed" as taken from American newspapers.
The report begins: "This day we have the disagreeable task of recording the capture & destruction of the city of Washington, the capital of the United States! Six months ago, no one could have thought such an event could have possibly taken place. But this is the age of wonders!..." with much more.
Great to have this report in this famous London newspaper.
Four pages, very nice condition.
