NEW YORK HERALD, Oct. 21, 1859
* Harper's Ferry Insurrection
* John Brown
The front page has nice content on the John Brown Harper's Ferry raid with first column heads including; "The Harper's Ferry Outbreak" "Verbatim Report of the Questioning of Old Brown by Senator Mason..." "Hie Refuses to Disclose the Names of his Abettors..." "His Statement to the Herald Reporter" "The Slavery Question Must Come up for Settlement Sooner than the Southern People Calculate on" "The Property of Slaveholders to have been Confiscated" "Letter From Gerrit Smith to Capt. Brown" and more. Related text takes almost all of the front page plus there is editorial commentary on page 4.
Eight pages, a bit irregular at the blank spine margin, nice condition.
