SEE PHOTO(s) - COMPLETE ORIGINAL Civil War NEWSPAPER, the
NY Tribune
dated July 24, 1863. This original newspaper contains prominent "stacked" headlines and a long detailed account of the famous
Confederate JOHN MORGAN RAID on Ohio, where he was captured by Union forces
. This also contains "stacked" headlines and news that
NEGR0 REGIMENTS were to be ORGANIZED
to fight for the Union.
Morgan's Raid was a diversionary incursion by Confederate cavalry into the northern (Union) states of Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio and, briefly, West Virginia, during the American Civil War. The raid took place from June 11 to July 26, 1863, and is named for the commander of the Confederate troops, Brig. Gen. John Hunt Morgan. Although it caused temporary alarm in the North, the raid was ultimately classed as a failure.
The raid covered more than 1,000 miles, beginning in Tennessee and ending in northern Ohio. It coincided with the Vicksburg Campaign and the Gettysburg Campaign, and it was meant to draw Union troops away from these fronts by frightening the North into demanding their troops return home. Despite his initial successes, Morgan was thwarted in his attempts to recross the Ohio River and eventually was forced to surrender what remained of his command in northeastern Ohio near the Pennsylvania border. Morgan and other senior officers were held in the Ohio Penitentiary, but they tunneled their way out and took a train to Cincinnati, where they crossed the Ohio River to safety.
