On Adams & Jefferson assuming the Presidency and Vice Presidency...



Item # 707369

February 18, 1797

GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES & PHILADELPHIA DAILY ADVERTISER, Feb. 18, 1797  Page 3 has a lengthy address: "To the Honorable the Congress of the United States" being: "The memorial & petition of the owners of land in the state of Tennessee that was purchased from the state of North Carolina & has since been yielded to the Indians for  hunting ground."
Page 2 has an interesting speculation as to when the United States will be "filled up" with its maximum population. Another item notes that: "It is now reduced to a certainty that Mr. Adams is the president of the United States, and Mr. Jefferson the Vice President...Each being thus perfectly satisfied in the choice made by the people of the United States, what may we not expect from their united talents and patriotism."
Four pages, wide never-trimmed margins, very nice condition.
