About this Item
Broadside, folio, 11-1/4" x 16". Light edge wear, printed in four columns. Very Good. "Boston Daily Advocate. Extra." A rare broadside urging election of Antimasonic candidates for Governor and other State offices. John Bailey was the Party's choice for Governor [he would lose, and die in the following year]. The broadside, signed in type by Chairman Abner Phelps and Secretary George Gibson, relies heavily on the antimasonic views of John Quincy Adams, who is quoted abundantly. "Freemasonry is in the league against the free States, and it is a very remarkable phenomenon that antimasonry has taken root only in the free States. That fact alone speaks volumes. I firmly believe that antimasonry is the only principle of political salvation to the free States." If the free States fail to halt the spread of Freemasonry, they "shall have their throats cut across from ear to ear, by the entered apprentice's oath." OCLC 85838285 [1- MA Hist. Soc.], 46774310 [1- WI Hist. Soc.] as of October 2024. Not in American Imprints or Sabin, or the AAS online site. Seller Inventory # 27887
