Item # 706986
December 07, 1865
DAILY NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER, Washington, D.C., Dec. 7, 1865 Page 2 begins with a very historic report headed: "OFFICIAL" "Georgia the Twenty-eighth State, Ratifies the Constitutional Amendment" with the letter from Milledgeville. Thus, three-quarters of the states have ratified the 13th Amendment forbidding slavery, and it now becomes the law of the land. Terrific to have this report in this newspaper, which was the mouthpiece of the federal government.
Four pages, large folio size, very nice condition. Folder size is for the issue folded in half.
