"Friends of temperance! We have a great conflict before us. We have fought long and we have fought well.The rotten license system can not stand." The good guys will win eventually although "the rum interest is a mighty power." <br /> Sabin 92840. Not in Eberstadt Decker BEAL. American Temperance Union unknown

18421240New York: Wm. G. Boggs printer 1842. 8vo. 46 pp. 1 blank f. <br><br>Mayor Morris refused to swear in Heath and Roome as assessors claiming election irregularity. The state supreme court held: "The loss of the votes in one of the four districts into which the Sixth ward was divided did not defeat the election in that ward. If the votes of the First district are to be considered as wholly out of the question in consequence of the riotous proceedings which drove the Inspectors from the room where they were canvassing the result of the election must then be determined from the votes of the three remaining districts." Does this sound like foreshadowing of the 2000 presidential election Good. Stitched in self-wrappers. Title-page soiled with very shallow chipping. Corners bumped. Pages browned in the margins. Last leaf creased. Wm. G. Boggs, printer unknown books
