Republican; or, Anti-Democrat, Vol. II, No. 107, Friday, March 18, 1803.: "Be Just, and Fear Not; Let all the Aims Thou Aim’st at be Thy Country’s, Thy God’s, and Truth’s."

Baltimore, Maryland: "Published every Monday, Wednesday & Friday by Charles Prentiss," Vol. II, No. 107, Friday, March 18, 1803. Original broadsheet newspaper, single sheet measuring 21.75 inches by 27 inches folded once horizontally forming 4 pages.

Old folds, tattered & creased, losses in the margins not affecting text, separated about half way at the vertical fold, toned & lightly foxed, a good or so copy & still quite useful.

A rare example of a short-lived Federalist newspaper published & presumably edited by Charles Prentiss who is described in the Encyclopedia Virginia as "a fiery Boston writer." In addition to political content reflective of the then defeated Federalist Party who lost to the Democratic-Republican Party of Thomas Jefferson, this issue includes poignant if now repulsive advertising:

"Twenty Dollars Reward."
"RAN-AWAY from the subscriber, some time in November last, a NEGRO MAN, named Sam, he is about 24 years old, 5 feet 6 inches high, well made, has some impediment in his speech, occasioned by the loss of two of his teeth. Also, some time in December last, a NEGRO MAN, named Charles, he is about 25 years old, 5 feet 9 inches, slender made. Likewise a NEGRO GIRL, named Hannah, 10 years old. No description can be given of their clothes, it is supposed they went to Baltimore. 
Whoever shall secure the above negroes or either of them, shall receive the above reward for each, if taken in this state, if out of the state FORTY DOLLARS and all reasonable charges paid by Cellia Patridge, Dorchester County."
