About This Item
[New York, 1865. 16pp. 'Campaign Document No. 3' at head of title. A folded elephant folio sheet, untrimmed and uncut. Advertisement for The N.Y. Printing Company at page 16. Lightly worn, with gum label and small institutional rubberstamp. Else Very Good.
The rare record of a Tammany Hall meeting of "respectable and earnest" Democrats hoping for victory in the upcoming State elections. They seek "restoration of this government as it formerly was, and to give the States what belonged to them, and what does belong to them by the Federal Constitution."
The rally wholeheartedly supports President Andrew Johnson's policy of returning the former Rebel States to full legal equality as quickly as possible, with no more quibbling about civil rights and Negro suffrage. Tammany's leader, 'Honest John' Kelly, Sheriff of New York and known for qualities having little to do with honesty, chaired the Meeting.
OCLC 4816151 [2- Hamilton, U IL], 247138084 [1- IN State Lib.] as of October 2021.
