NEW YORK EVENING POST, Sept. 1, 1832 * Extremely early article on the Mormons Rare is it to find newspaper accounts of the Mormons in newspapers before 1835. And this issue is 3 years earlier than that, with a page 2 item headed: "Mormonism" and with the complete text shown in the photos below. The strong anti-Mormon sentiment which was growing at that time is quite evident, as the closing sentence reads: "Thus are people swindled of their property and drawn from their comfortable homes by ignorant fanatics." See the photos below for the complete article. You get the complete 4 page newspaper which is in very nice condition. A rare opportunity for one of the earliest Mormon accounts in a period newspaper.

NILES' WEEKLY REGISTER, from Baltimore, Maryland, dated September 8, 1832 * Very early report on the Mormons * Detailed 1830 census report This small size newspaper began in 1811 and was a prime source for national political news of the first half of the19th century. Within this issue is a rather brief article with a small head: "Mormonism", the full report reading: "Two preachers of this sect have lately visited Boston, and soon made 15 converts to their strange doctrines--some of whom are respectable persons--5 also had joined at Lynn. Certain of these converts have cast considerable sums of money into the stock, and all were about to depart for the 'promised land', in Jackson county, Missouri--the precious spot having been lately discovered." (see photos). This is one of the earliest mentions of the Mormons we have seen in a newspaper, and quite rare as such. Near the back of the issue are 4 pages of charts reporting the results of the 1830 census (see photos for one of the pages). Among other reports in this issue are: * "Bank of the United States" * "Relics of the Revolution" * "West Indies" references the slave insurrection in Jamaica * "Southern Prejudices" This issue is complete in 16 pages, measures about 6 1/2 by 10 inches, ink stain in the blank spine margin, very nice condition. As noted in Wikipedia: "Niles edited and published the Weekly Register until 1836, making it into one of the most widely-circulated magazines in the United States and himself into one of the most influential journalists of his day. Devoted primarily to politics, Niles' Weekly Register is considered an important source for the history of the period."

THE NEW YORK HERALD, New York, NY, May 3, 1845 * Early Mormons * Community dispute * Iowa City * Nauvoo, Illinois The front page has an early report about the "Mormons" concerning a dispute among two parties within the Mormon settlement. The report, from the Iowa Standard, reads: * ...the Mormon settlement in Iowa county, west of Iowa City, is in arms, and divided into two parties, threatening each other with destruction. The Sheriff has levied a posse to go up and rectify the matter, if possible. The difficulty is said to have originated in the personal appropriation of the money and effects of the company made by the leader, who has chosen and armed a body-guard for his defence.

THE NEW YORK HERALD, New York, NY, May 3, 1845 * Early Mormons * Community dispute * Iowa City * Nauvoo, Illinois The front page has an early report about the "Mormons" concerning a dispute among two parties within the Mormon settlement.

The Sheriff has levied a posse to go up and rectify the matter, if possible.

THE FLORIDIAN, Tallahassee, February 26, 1848   Nineteenth century newspapers from Florida are uncommon, particularly rare are those from before the Civil War. Here is such an issue from the capital city of Florida, and from over 13 years before the outbreak of the Civil War. Page two has nearly a full column headed: "Important News From Mexico" with some of the text including: "...We hear further that the preliminaries of the treaty of peace were signed on the first day of February by the Mexican government...By the terms of this treaty we understand that the United States obtain the boundary of the Rio Grande, New Mexico and Upper California..." with more. Yet another column on pg. 2 is headed: "Mexican Affairs--The Treaty Of Peace" which does not confirm the particulars but rather gives several instances of having received some details (see photos). Also on the inside pages are: "Rumors of Peace" "Old Joe, the Indian Chief" "Ten Regiment Bill & the Pesidency" "Doings in Congress" and more, including an article headed: "Mormon Fanticism" which includes: "...a gentleman of Boston had obtained a divorce from his wife in consequence of her becoming a Mormon...obtained a divorce from his wife as she had deserted him to become the 'spiritual wife of a Mormon.' She was a woman of high endowments, accomplishments even...whose only failing was that she had allowed herself to be captivated by the ridiculous phantasies of the Mormon prophet.". The bkpg. is entirely taken up with ads including those headed: "Negro Kerseys" and "Negro Clothing" among others. Complete in 4 pages, folio size, slightly irregular at the blank spine margin, generally in very nice, clean condition.  A very desirable and early newspaper from Florida.

Background Information: Dan Rice (January 23, 1823 - February 22, 1900), was an American entertainer of many talents, most famously as a clown, who was pre-eminent before the Civil War. During the height of his career Rice was a household name. Coining the terms "One Horse Show" and "Greatest Show", he was a leading personality in the new American "pop culture", brought on by the technological changes of the Industrial Revolution and resultant mass culture. Rice became so popular he ran for President of the United States in 1868. With changes in circus venues and popular culture after the Civil War, his legendary talents under the big top have gradually slipped into almost total historical obscurity such that in 2001, biographer David Carlyon called him "the most famous man you've never heard of". source: wikipedia</div>
