President Abraham Lincoln Uses Montgomery Blair His Postmaster General as a Conduit to Blair’s Brother Frank Who at Lincoln’s Request Was Resigning His Military Commission to Take a Seat in Congress
Frank supported Lincoln’s policies and the hope was he would help organize the House and perhaps even become Speaker In the Civil War era the Blairs were one of the most influential families in Washington. Francis Preston Blair Sr. had been from 1831 to 1845 Editor-in-Chief of the Washington Globe which served as the primary propaganda instrument for the Democratic Party. Blair was also a key advisor to President Andrew Jackson and in Jackson’s informal Kitchen Cabinet. But in the 1840s Blair though a slaveholder came to oppose the extension of slavery and left the Democratic Party over the Kansas-Nebraska Bill. He was a force in helping form the Republican Party in 1854. Blair supported Abraham Lincoln for President in 1860 and served as an advisor to Lincoln during the Civil War. His son Montgomery was Lincoln’s Postmaster General at a time when that was an influential Cabinet post and his other son Francis Jr. Frank was a Congressman and general in the Union Army. Montgomery Blair was the most conservative Republican in Lincoln’s cabinet and the Blairs whose family owned slaves represented the conservative wing of the Republican Party on emancipation. Frank Blair was the party’s “chief theoretician†for colonization of former slaves and the “best most passionate and most industrious proponent of a plan of gradual emancipation†according to historian Allan Nevins. The Blairs were at loggerheads with the Radical Republicans like Sumner who were actively gunning for Montgomery’s ouster and also for marginalizing Francis Sr. and Jr. In early April 1862 Congress with Frank in the House of Representatives and with his support voted for compensated emancipation for the District of Columbia. In the midst of this debate Frank rose to make a spirited defense of the President on April 11. Wrote Blair biographer William E. Parrish “To those who said that Lincoln had not policy Frank argued that the President’s main concern lay in preserving the Union. Refusing to believe that the South had seceded strictly over the issue of slavery Frank recalled those Southern leaders who had tried to pursue moderation and then made it clear that he considered the real cause of the war to be the ‘negro question and not the slavery question.’†Blair argued against full emancipation: “No wise man desires to increase the number of enemies to the State within the hostile regions or divide its friend outside. Mr. Lincoln knew that a decree of emancipation simply would have this effect. Such an act he knew was calculated to make rebels of the whole of the non slaveholders of the South and at the same time to weaken the sympathy of a large number of working men of the North who are not ready to see their brethren in the South put on equality with manumitted negroes.†President Lincoln’s Secretary John Hay recalled that one night in early December 1863 he John Nicolay and Secretary of the Interior John Usher were in the President’s office discussing the Blairs when Mr. Lincoln came and observed: “The Blairs have to an unusual degree the spirit of clan. Their family is a close corporation. Frank is their hope and pride. They have a way of going with a rush for anything they undertake especially have Montgomery and the Old Gentleman.†Lincoln had written Montgomery Blair with some advice to pass on to his brother just weeks earlier on November 2 1863: “I understood you to say that your brother Gen. Frank Blair desires to be guided by my wishes as to whether he will occupy his seat in Congress or remain in the field. My wish then is compounded of what I believe will be best for the country and it is that he will come here put his military commission in my hands take his seat go into caucus with our friends abide the nominations help elect the nominees and thus aid to organize a House of Representatives which will really support the government in the war. If the result shall be the election of himself as speaker let him serve in that position. If not let him retake his commission and return to the army for the country.†Lincoln went on to write: “It will be a mistake if he shall allow the provocations offered him by insincere time-servers to drive him from the house of his own building. He is young yet. He has abundant talents—quite enough to occupy all his time without devoting any to temper. He is rising in military skill and usefulness. His recent appointment to the command of a corps by one so competent to judge as General Sherman proves this. In that line he can serve both the country and himself more profitably than he could as a member of Congress upon the floor.†Thus Lincoln using Montgomery as a conduit to Frank recommended that Frank take his seat in Congress and work effectively there and if that brought insufficient results he could resume his military career. Thus at the request of President Lincoln Blair relinquished his command of the 15th Corps on December 11 1863 to return to Congress and resigned his commission on January 1 1864. It was accepted by Lincoln on January 12. In Congress Blair would defend Lincoln’s Reconstruction plans against radical elements of the Republican Party. He was equally courageous and aggressive on the battlefield and political field. Blair twice vigorously attacked Secretary of the Treasury Salmon Chase on the House floor and he had enemies in place in the Radical Republican wing. Blair failed to become Speaker of the House resigned his seat in June 1864 and was returned to military service by President Lincoln. On December 29 1863 just three days before Blair resigned his commission but after he had relinquished his command Lincoln called a Cabinet meeting. The topics discussed were not recorded and are unknown. Montgomery Blair and a few others were not present. On January 2 1864 Lincoln wrote to Montgomery Blair asking to see him. Autograph note signed on his note card Washington January 2 1864. “Will the Postmaster General please call and see me this morning A. Lincoln.†We speculate that the President was calling Montgomery Blair to the Executive Mansion to again use him as a conduit to his brother Frank and related to Frank’s taking his seat in Congress and the organization of the House. Perhaps the results of the December 29 Cabinet meeting were also discussed. This intriguing note to Blair is unpublished unknown

President Abraham Lincoln Appoints a Washington Militia Officer to Help Defend the Nation’s Capital as Civil War Looms
Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated on March 4 1861 and he was immediately faced with the secession crisis the looming confrontation at Fort Sumter and the potential secession of neighboring Virginia. In order to defend the nation’s capital as the Civil War loomed and broke out from Lincoln’s inauguration to July 1861 33 companies of infantry and one company of cavalry were raised from the District militia. Since the District of Columbia was Federal territory it was the job of the President to approve the commission of the officers. Document signed Washington March 27 1861 appointing Joseph B. Moore “First Lieutenant of Infantry in the Seventh Regiment Fourth Brigade of the Militia of the District of Columbia.†The document is countersigned by Simon Cameron as Secretary of War and the Great Seal of the U.S. is still present. It soon became apparent that the local militia could not handle the crisis and Lincoln called for states in the North to send troops to assist. Some Pennsylvania militia and regulars from Minnesota arrived in the capital on April 18 to join approximately 600 District of Columbia militia 200 U.S. Marines and about 600 regulars. The Sixth Massachusetts Infantry Regiment arrived the next day after experiencing problems and violence in Baltimore. Within five days of the Seventh New York Infantry Regiment’s arrival in the Union capital 7500 volunteers were quartered in the city and by the end of the month of April the number had grown to nearly 11000 unknown

President Abraham Lincoln Appoints a Surgeon Who Served Throughout the Civil War
A very uncommon medical appointment signed by Lincoln with the appointee finishing the war as a brevet major Dr. Henry T. Legler came to the United States from Germany after participating in the failed democratic uprising there in 1848. He initially served as a surgeon with the 8th New York Volunteers a regiment composed mainly of native Germans. That unit participated in the pursuit of Gen. Thomas J. Jackson in the Shenandoah Valley and as part of Gen. Louis Blenker’s division fought at the battles of Cross Keys and New Market. In the battle of Cross Keys its killed wounded and missing numbered 220 out of a total of 550 engaged. Afterwards Legler left that regiment and in 1863 was appointed a surgeon in another New York regiment a post he held for the rest of the war. He resigned in 1866 as a brevet major of volunteers. Legler came to Oakland CA in 1875 and acquired a large practice in his profession. His prominence in the medical world procured for him in 1881 the appointment as county physician in charge of the receiving hospital. He died aged 88 one of the oldest practicing physicians in the state. Document signed as President Washington July 1 1864 naming Legler Assistant Surgeon of Volunteers effective March 27 1863. The document is countersigned by Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton unknown

President Abraham Lincoln Original Signed Proclamation Conveying the Coveted “Thanks of Congress†to the Commodore Whose Victory in 1861 Led to the First Raising of the U.S. Flag Over a Confederate Fortification in the Civil War
Lincoln lauds Silas Stringham’s "distinguished service in the capture of Forts Hatteras and Clarke.†In early 1861 the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Army General Winfield Scott developed what he called the “Anaconda Plan†which aimed to squeeze the Confederacy by blockading its ports launching amphibious attacks at key points along the Southern coast and seizing control of vital inland waterways such as the Mississippi River. When the Civil War broke out the U.S. government began to implement this plan. In the opening months of the war there was little good news for the North and the public clamor for a victory grew daily. Instead on July 21 1861 the Battle of Bull Run resulted in disaster for Union arms. Frustration built and the U.S. Government became increasingly anxious to show that it had a viable plan and could field forces capable of winning. In this heated atmosphere in July and August the U.S. Navy began to establish the blockade. To complement this effort it determined to launch its first amphibious assault since the Mexican War: an assault on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. This locale was chosen because the Union leadership saw the value of seizing control of the navigable channels into North Carolina sounds as with these under control U.S. forces would be in position to take key points on the Carolina mainland. These coastal strong-points then would serve as bases from which they could push inland to disrupt vital Confederate agricultural supply areas and the rail lines of communication running through the state to the Confederate capital of Richmond. Possession of these waters would also help eliminate the threat to U.S. shipping from rebel privateers – a significant problem that threatened to grow and was already causing disruptions to trade as marine insurance rates in the north sky-rocketed. Hatteras Inlet commanded the entrance to North Carolina’s sounds leading Union commanders to decide to seize its surrounding shoreline first. General Benjamin Butler who previously had commanded the Union garrison at Fort Monroe in Hampton Roads became the landing force commander. Commodore Silas Stringham commander of the Atlantic Blockading Squadron led the supporting naval forces. The task force Stringham commanded was the largest that the U.S. Navy had assembled up to that point in the war. It consisted of three steam frigates three gunboats and a converted sidewheel steamer which all told mounted 149 guns including modern rifled naval guns. Rounding out the task force were two chartered vessels acting as troop transports and a collection of surfboats and auxiliary tugs. The transports and auxiliaries carried a landing force of two New York infantry regiments for a total of slightly more than 900 men. The immediate objective of the operation was the capture of two forts – Clarke and Hatteras – that guarded Hatteras Inlet. These forts comprised a significant part of the Confederacy’s military forces on the Outer Banks. On the morning of August 27 1861 Confederate lookouts at Hatteras lighthouse spotted Commodore Stringham’s ships on the horizon. Soon thereafter the Union warships began bombarding both forts pounding them with a steady stream of accurate fire. With the bombardment complete the Union army troops came ashore. Soon Fort Clarke’s garrison had retreated to Fort Hatteras where the Confederates were reinforced and put up their defense. For a while the advantage shifted to the southerners as bad weather drove Stringham’s ships out of firing range of the forts. But Union naval forces resumed their attack when the weather moderated the next morning and by late morning the battered Southern troops had had enough and Fort Hatteras surrendered. In the end no Union ground attack was needed because of the success of the naval forces under Stringham. In fact not a man on the Union side was killed. How happy was Lincoln to receive the news General Butler in his autobiography described the meeting he and Gustavus Fox Assistant Secretary of the Navy had with Lincoln in the White House to tell him the news. “…The President was called and when our errand was hinted to him he immediately came in his night shirt. Everybody knows how tall Lincoln was and he seemed very much taller in that garment; and Fox was about five feet nothing. In a few hurried words not waiting for any forms or ceremonies Fox communicated the news and then he and Lincoln fell into each other’s arms. That is Fox put his arms around Lincoln about as high as his hips and Lincoln reached down over him so that his arms were pretty near the floor apparently and thus holding each other they flew around the room once or twice and the night shirt was completely agitated.†The victory provided a much-needed boost to northern spirits and enabled the people to see that the Lincoln Administration’s plan to fight the war had substance and could bring victories. As such its political value exceeded its considerable military value. On the military side the Hatteras expedition demonstrated the central importance of naval fire support to amphibious operations. Additionally Stringham innovated by having his ships fire while on the move rather than anchoring and slugging it out with nearby shore batteries as navies had done in the past. This made the defenders’ task more difficult while not affecting the Union warships’ ability to put their ordnance on target. Stringham’s brilliant tactic was used extensively throughout the war by the U.S. Navy especially in taking control of the Mississippi River. Stringham was promoted from Commodore to Real Admiral. On July 11 1862 President Lincoln demonstrating his appreciation of the role Commodore Stringham had played in the struggle for the Union wrote to the legislative branch recommending that he be awarded the coveted Thanks of Congress. “I recommend…Silas H. Stringham now on the retired list for distinguished services in the capture of Forts Hatteras and Clark he specified. The Thanks were voted and approved on February 7 1863. This made Stringham one of just 15 navy officers and 15 army officers ever to receive the Thanks of Congress during the Civil War. However due to administrative delays it was not until later that the paperwork was completed and the naval hero was sent his official appreciation. Just a day before his second inauguration President Lincoln who had initiated the process took upon himself the responsibility of conveying the Thanks along with his own personal sentiments. He did so in this communication Proclamation Signed Executive Mansion March 3 1865 to Rear Admiral Stringham. “It is my duty as it is my sincere pleasure to transmit herewith a copy of the Joint Resolution of Congress approved 7 February 1863 tendering you and the officers its thanks for your distinguished service in the capture of Forts Hatteras and Clarke on the coast of North Carolina.†Interestingly although addressed to the Admiral and thus technically a letter because of its official nature Lincoln treated it as a document and executed it with his full signature. We cannot recall seeing another instance of Lincoln interjecting his own feelings into his wartime correspondence or documents which were almost uniformly impersonal and to the point. But with victory at hand he allowed his exuberance to show. The retained secretarial copy of Admiral Stringham’s response is present and adds his perspective. On March 6 1865 he wrote President Lincoln saying “I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of the 3rd instant transmitting me a copy of the Joint Resolution of Congress approved 7 February 1863 and to express my appreciation of the honor conferred upon me as well as the pleasure which every officer must feel at the evidence that his efforts are appreciated by his country.†The congressional resolution mentioned in the letter is not present but stated “That the thanks for Congress be and are hereby given to…Rear Admiral Silas Stringham…†unknown

Lincoln Abraham
President Abraham Lincoln Appoints One of the Earliest 49ers and President of “The Society of California Pioneers†to a Senior Treasury Position in San Francisco
William Farwell was a prominent California editor who had campaigned for him in that state In September 1848 the print on the newspapers announcing the discovery of gold in California had barely dried before some enterprising young men began preparing to go there. One ship was chartered by 152 well-educated young men of whom Willard B. Farwell was one who named it after the famous statesman Edward Everett. At that time Everett was president of Harvard college and was a mentor to some of the wayfarers. As a going away gift he presented the company with 300 volumes of the works of major authors. The vessel left Boston January 10 1849 and arrived at San Francisco July 7th. The company brought with it a knock-down steamer hull cabin boilers and engine. A smaller boat was obtained and christened The Pioneer and it would be the first steamer to reach the gold fields themselves. The Pioneer launched on August 12 and five days later wrote Farwell himself the little Pioneer sailed up the Sacramento River reaching its destination early in the morning on August 19th. The miners already on site cheered until they were hoarse and the day was given up to jollification and whisky. Farwell stayed in California and became editor of a popular newspaper that supported the policies of the new Republican Party. Dr. Anson Henry Sen. Edward D. Baker and Abraham Lincoln were friends and prominent Illinois Whig politicos back in Lincoln’s Springfield days. Henry moved there to practice medicine when Lincoln was assistant surveyor of Sangamon County. Henry emigrated to Oregon when he was appointed Indian agent for that territory at the specific suggestion of Lincoln. The two men stayed in contact. In fact states “Mr. Lincoln & Friends†Anson “acted as the Administration’s eyes and ears†on the west coast. President Lincoln appointed him surveyor-general of Washington Territory in 1861. Edward D. Baker moved to California in 1852 and when Henry advised him that he could win the upcoming Senate election there Baker went to Oregon. He was elected and started serving in the U.S. Senate in late 1860. Lincoln was so close to Baker that he named one of his sons after him and was devastated when Baker was killed in action leading a Union regiment at the Battle of Balls Bluff in 1861. Henry and Baker were friends of Farwell who was also Baker’s biographer. One of these men clearly placed Farwell in touch with Lincoln and Farwell became involved in the Lincoln election campaign in California. As the Lincoln Papers in the Library of Congress point out Farwell was in direct communication with Lincoln about events on the West Coast during that campaign. Farwell predicted to Lincoln accurately that he would do well in the Golden State and in December 1860 wrote the President-Elect “I trust the result gave you sincere gratification.†he President-Elect asked Baker to make some recommendations for appointments to be made for posts on the West Coast. On April 3 1861 shortly after Lincoln’s inauguration Baker wrote him a letter on this subject: “I have named Mr Willard B. Farwell for Naval Officer of the port of San Francisco. He has been for four years and upwards the editor of the Daily Alta California the most influential independent public journal in California. In every crisis he has caused it to evince Republican tendencies and has rendered us immense aid and service. He has represented the city of San Francisco in the legislature. He has shown high courage when such a quality was greatly needed. He is a man of character talents and education.†Lincoln concurred. Document signed Washington April 15 1861 appointing Willard B. Farwell as naval officer for the District of San Francisco. The position of naval officer was not a military one; the naval officer was the chief deputy to the Collector of a port a Treasury appointment. Thus this document is also signed by Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase. Lincoln made this appointment during the time when the U.S. Senate was in recess. He reappointed Farwell in July 1861 for the Senate’s confirmation. To illustrate the types of tasks this post involved Farwell went to Europe and the East to ferret out frauds in importations of wines. Later in life Farwell was President of “The Society of California Pioneers.†Document comes matted unknown

PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES:" BROADSIDE CHROMOLITHOGRAPH COMMEMORATING THE INAUGURATION OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN AS PRESIDENT
Philadelphia: Published by F. Bouclet 1861. Rare beautifully colored 20" x 25-3/4" lithograph printed on wove paper titled "Presidents of the United States". Displays all the Presidents through a beardless Lincoln surrounding a vignette of Lady Liberty the American eagle a steamboat and the Capitol the dome complete as anticipated though still under construction. Published by F. Bouclet and lithographed by A. Feusier. In superb condition with just a hint of toning from previous framing. Fine. "A large patriotic print probably issued around the time of Abraham Lincoln's inauguration. Columbia stands before the U.S. Capitol holding a shield and a staff with a liberty cap. On her brow she wears a laurel wreath with a single star. Beside her is an eagle holding a streamer with the motto "E Pluribus Unum." A steamship is visible in the background left. The central scene is framed by oval portraits of the first sixteen presidents of the United States with George Washington at the top and a beardless Abraham Lincoln at the bottom" Reilly. The print "commemorates Lincoln's election and recognizes the challenges and opportunities facing the 16th president. In this image a portrait of Lincoln completes an unbroken ring of portraits depicting the 15 presidents who preceded him. The illustration calls to mind a quote from Lincoln's first inaugural 'Perpetuity is implied if not expressed in the fundamental law of all national governments'. By commemorating Lincoln's election and illustrating the troubled and complex scene he faced this chromolithograph encapsulates the spirit of Lincoln's presidency" Mast 'A Closer Look at Presidents of the United States 4 President Lincoln's Cottage page 2 2009. Reilly 1861-13. OCLC 41119329 2- Lib. Cong. MN Public School District as of November 2019. The print is also included in the Jay Last Collection at the Huntington. Published by F. Bouclet unknown

Lincoln Abraham
PROCLAMATION OF AMNESTY. THE FOLLOWING PROCLAMATION IS APPENDED TO THE MESSAGE. PROCLAMATION caption title
N.p. perhaps Virginia 1864. 3pp. on a single folded sheet. with: OATH OF ALLEGIANCE. N.p. perhaps Harper's Ferry Va. 1864. Single sheet 3 x 7 3/4 inches. The OATH affixed to a partial manuscript ledger report recording lost military stores for an unidentified unit in 1863 which is itself glued to the verso of the last blank page of the Amnesty Proclamation. Minor toning light foxing some wrinkling. Overall very good. In a cloth chemise and green half morocco and cloth slipcase spine gilt. An exceedingly rare separate printing - perhaps by a military field press - of President Abraham Lincoln's December 1863 presidential proclamation offering amnesty to citizens of the Confederacy providing they take an oath that they "will abide by and faithfully support all proclamations of the President made during the existing rebellion having reference to slaves" i.e. the Emancipation Proclamation. The Amnesty Proclamation was issued with President Lincoln's third Annual Message to Congress i.e. State of the Union Address on December 8 1863. It was appended per the language in the title here to the official printing of that address but also printed separately. The present printing almost certainly executed in the weeks after Lincoln's State of the Union was likely hastily composed from the text of the official printing of the proclamation. The work carries no imprint information of any kind and bears the hallmarks of a military field press printing. Toward the close of 1863 with the Confederate Army in full retreat discussions in Congress centered on how to restore the Southern states to the Union. "The crisis which threatened to divide the friends of the Union is past" announced Lincoln. Now it was the duty of Congress to ensure that all citizens in the South regardless of race were guaranteed the equal protection of the law. A number of competing proposals emerged from deliberations but in the end during his message to Congress on Dec. 8 1863 Lincoln declared reconstruction of the South a wholly executive responsibility and "offered 'full pardon.with restoration of all rights of property except as to slaves' to all rebels who would take an oath of future loyalty to the Constitution and pledge to obey acts of Congress and presidential proclamations relating to slavery" Donald p.471. Those excluded from taking the oath were the highest ranking members of the Confederacy - government officials judges military and naval officers above the rank of army colonel or navy lieutenant former congressmen and "all who have engaged in treating colored persons or white persons otherwise than lawfully as prisoners of war." Lincoln further encouraged the southern states to make provisions "in relation to the freed people of such State which shall recognize and declare their permanent freedom provide for their education and which may yet be consistent as a temporary arrangement with their present condition as a laboring landless and homeless class." "Lincoln indicated that this was only one plan for reconstructing the rebel South and while it was the best he could think of for now he would gladly consider others and possibly adopt them. He might even modify his own classes of pardons if that seemed warrantable. Afterward almost everybody but die-hard Democrats seemed happy with the plan" Oates p.371. The proclamation is accompanied by a partially-printed OATH OF ALLEGIANCE dated 1864 and datelined Harper's Ferry Virginia. The oath requires the taker to "solemnly swear that I will support protect and defend the Constitution and Government of the United States against all enemies." It is signed in type by Henry A. Urban Lieutenant and A.D.C. Aide-de-Camp. The oath is printed with a blank space for the name of the person taking the oath and the date. There is also a space for people who know the oath-taker and "certify on honor that we know Mr. blank to be a true and loyal man to the Federal Government." The OATH is affixed to a partial manuscript ledger report recording lost military stores for an unidentified unit in 1863 This printing of the Amnesty Proclamation is just as interesting as the government broadside printing or the first pamphlet printing as this edition would have also been used in the field by Union troops encountering Confederate rebels. The composition of the beginning of the seventh paragraph is consistent with the first pamphlet printing of the Amnesty Proclamation Monaghan 191 and not the broadside printing. The text here begins "Therefore I Abraham Lincoln."; in the broadside printing the "Therefore" is present at the end of the preceding paragraph. The simple and somewhat loose execution of the composition seen here is consistent with field press printings as is the lack of an imprint of any kind. Perhaps this simple production was intended for Union troops to literally hand to Confederate soldiers to read. The presence of the portion of the ledger and the Oath of Allegiance lends credence to the notion that this edition of the Amnesty Proclamation was produced for use by the military. This printing of the Amnesty Proclamation is not in Monaghan OCLC nor in any reference work we could find. In fact we could find no other three-page editions of the Amnesty Proclamation at all. Surely printed in small numbers to begin with it is perhaps a unique surviving example. MONAGHAN 191 ref. SABIN 41162 note. David Herbert Donald: LINCOLN New York. 1995 p.471. Stephen B.

LINCOLN Abraham
Proclamation of Thanksgiving
Massachusetts: n.p. 1863. FIRST EDITION. Mounted on cloth folded in quarters minor splitting a center fold; light soiling and edgewear with minor chips without loss of text very light annotations in ink on verso visible to recto right margin. Overall an excellent example of this rare and important broadside. First printing of the first proclamation of Thanksgiving as a national holiday. This original broadside produced in Massachusetts is formatted in two halves the top being Governor John A. Andrew's announcement of Lincoln's Proclamation dated July 27 1863 and the bottom being Lincoln's actual proclamation dated July 15 1863 announcing that August 6 shall be set aside as a National Day of Thanksgiving. Though the exact printing date is unknown it can be assumed that it was printed within the week following July 27. Thanksgiving was observed as a holiday since colonial times and each state would set aside its own day for celebration. This proclamation was the first time that the holiday would be celebrated on a set day nationwide making it the first observed Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Later the same year on October 3 1863 Lincoln made a second proclamation again announcing Thanksgiving as a holiday but this time in November a date closer to the time most states had been celebrating it in the past. This earlier proclamation is actually the first time Thanksgiving was given national status but because the second proclamation was widely accepted the knowledge of this earlier one has been somewhat forgotten making this piece a rare and important document in the annals of American history. Though this broadside is for the State of Massachusetts no other broadsides from any other states announcing this date are known to exist and only three other copies of this rare document are located through OCLC. [n.p.] hardcover
