DUNLAP'S AMERICAN DAILY ADVERTISER, Philadelphia, March 1, 1791 

* President George Washington servant advertisement

Page 3 has reports from the House of Representatives. The front page has a quaint and interesting "Wanted" ad, reading: "A Steward for the Household of the President of the United States. Any person well qualified for, and willing to act in the capacity, may learn particulars by enquiring at the President's house." (see)
The back page has a "Twenty Dollars Reward" for a runaway slave (see). Four pages, an archival mend on page 2, very nice condition.
