September 26, 1863
SPRINGFIELD DAILY REPUBLICAN, Massachusetts, Sept. 26, 1863Although there are many Civil War reports throughout this issue, perhaps the most interesting is a brief one on the back page, headed: "President Lincoln on Shakespeare".
In his letter to a Shakespearian actor, he mentions his love for the stage. It is perhaps ironic that it was at a theater where he would be assassinated.
Eight pages, very nice condition.
