September 04, 1863
NEW-YORK TRIBUNE, September 4, 1863  Page 5 has a brief but notable report about the defeat of a group of: " ...Navajoe Indians beyond fort Canby..." by part of the 1st New-Mexican Regiment led by Kit Carson (see photo).
Quite rare to see a report mentioning this famous Old West scout and  explorer, especially from the Civil War period. Areas of extremely lite foxing in the upper and lower left corners of each leaf, otherwise in very good condition.
