On the coming Louisiana Purchase... Thomas Jefferson...



Item # 713219

May 03, 1803

SPOONER'S VERMONT JOURNAL, Windsor, May 3, 1803  With considerations for the purchase of the Louisiana Territory from France then much in focus, it is not surprising that nearly the entire front page is taken up with the 5th in a series of 7 essays titled: "The Mississippi", dealing with this controversial topic of the day.
Beginning on the front page & taking most of page 2 is an Act of Congress concerning appropriations for the year 1803, signed in type: Th. Jefferson.
Four pages, never bound nor trimmed, nice condition.
