Title: The Independent. January 10, 1878
Description: New York, Henry C. Bowen, Publisher, 1878. Tabloid. Side folding tabloid journal. Disbound from a larger work. 32 pp. The Independent was a long running newspaper that promoted Congregationalism and advocated for abolition and women's suffrage, among other social issues.

Very light spotting/staining to the front page. Paper slightly brittle, with a few tears at the fore edge. Haphazard fold crease present. Good .
