On the death of George Washington...



Item # 708872

February 26, 1800

THOMAS'S MASSACHUSETTS SPY OR WORCESTER GAZETTE, Feb. 26, 1800  Over half of the front page is taken up with: "Biographical Sketch of Gen. George Washington" providing much detail on his early life. The article is continued in a future issue.
The last column of page 1 is mostly taken up with: "Capt. Dunham's Funeral Oration...On the Death of Gen. George Washington" which concludes from a previous issue & includes mention of his Masonic involvement, carrying over to page 2. And page 3 has another report on honoring the death of Washington.
Four pages, slightly irregular at a portion of the blank spine not affecting text, nice condition.
