Dred Scott Decision 1857
“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
The ''Boston Daily Journal'' dated 7 March 1857 with reporting on the decision in the famous Dred Scott Case. Article lists the three ''all important points'' as well as four ''incidental points'' determined by the Supreme Court, and mentions that the opinion ''…was listened to with profound attention by a crowded court room.'' An adjacent column reports: ''The Rights of Women,'' ''Hearing Before a Convention of the Judiciary Committee.'' Includes remarks made by Lucy Stone Blackwell and Judge Capron. Very good condition.
