Item description from seller

First edition, this issue only, a printed broadside, 20 ¾ x 9 3/8 inches. Largely a promotional for Fort Payne, where Bond filed this report. "This region, so exhaustless in supplies, so admirably furnished with coal, so conveniently communicating with the Gulf, will be of infinitely more consequence to us for its iron than it ever has been for its cotton." The Boston Traveller was a long-running weekly or semi-weekly newspaper, published under of varying names, none with extensive holdings on OCLC. Old fold lines, but very good.
