Illinois State Journal: April 25, 1865.

Springfield: Baker & Phillips, April 25, 1865 (Vol. XVII, No. 268). Large folio. (4pp). Black mourning borders. Very good.

Lincoln's body had just left Philadelphia en route to Springfield via a special funeral train when this issue appeared. Some other headlines: "Mosby Surrenders Conditionally on Johnston's Terms," "Lee's Paroled Soldiers Tearing up the Railroads," "Fall of Montgomery Confirmed," "Condition of Secretary Seward and Son." An attractive copy. Item #24427
