Jefferson's annual message, with mention of Lewis & Clark...
Item # 713498
December 15, 1806
SPOONER'S VERMONT JOURNAL, Windsor, Dec. 15, 1806 Pages 2 and 3 contain the "President's Message" communicated to Congress, it being Jefferson's state-of-the-union address to the nation.
Of significance is some fine mention of the Lewis and Clark expedition: "...The expedition of Messrs. Lewis and Clarke [sic]...has all the success which could have been expected....it is but justice to say that Messrs. Lewis and Clark, and their brave companions, have, by this arduous service, deserved well of their country." There is a second reference to these two explorers as well.
The address is signed by the President at its conclusion: Th. Jefferson.
Four pages, never bound nor trimmed, very nice condition.
