May 25, 1863

NEW YORK TIMES, May 25, 1863 

* Siege of Vicksburg, Mississippi
* Abraham Lincoln reports capture ?


Among the front page column heads on the Civil War are: "VICKSBURG" "An Official Announcement to the President that Vicksburgh has Fallen" "The Stars & Stripes Floating Over the Rebel Stronghold" "The  Victory Complete" and much more. Actually this was a bit premature as Vicksburg did not formally fall until early July.
Eight pages, some margin tears, good condition.
