Springfield: Daily Illinois State Register, May 8, 1865 (Vol. 17, No. 104). Large folio. (4pp). Good plus. Mild age toning and sporatic foxing. Overall an attractive, very displayable copy largely free of edge tears. Extensive coverage of the trial of Lincoln's assassins, rumors about Jefferson Davis's possible implication, General Joseph Johnston's farewell order, other Civil War "wrap up" matters, etc. Numerous interesting boilerplate advertisements.
