186323587np: Chronicle Print 1863. 18pp stitched. Light dusting and corner wear printed in double columns. Good or so. <br/><br/> A Democrat Woodward was a Justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court while running for Governor. He did not wage an active campaign preferring to remain on the Bench; he lost a close race to incumbent Republican Curtin. It was an important contest: some of the worst fighting of the War had occurred at Gettysburg and Woodward had a reputation as a Copperhead who was indifferent at best to slavery and preferred the South's secession to a civil war. <br/> Cook hopes for a vote that will "speak out in no uncertain tones against the unhallowed rebellion of the South and those who in the North 'cheer it on' by their voices pens and actions." Cook portrays Woodward as one of the South's most vocal and pernicious cheerleaders. OCLC locates ten copies under two accession numbers. <br/>FIRST EDITION. Sabin 16298. Not in Bartlett LCP.
