Add to basketUnbound. Condition: Near Fine. First edition. Quarto. 8pp. Printed in triple columns. Old fold, very good or better. This issue is given over completely to two articles: "Does the Constitution Require Freemen to Hunt Fugitive Slaves?" and "The Southern Platform; or, Manual of Southern Sentiment on the Subject of Slavery" by Dani…el Goodloe of North Carolina. Bailey edited an anti-slavery paper in Cincinnati in the 1830s and 1840s before moving to Washington in 1847 to edit the national Free Soil newspaper *The New Era*, which was perhaps the most influential antislavery paper of the 1850s, and which serialized *Uncle Tom's Cabin*. This particular paper, *Facts for the People*, issued as a supplement to *The New Era* was published between 1853 and 1856 for a total of 24 issues. Scarce.
