Bifolium (approx. 20½" x 15"), text in 6 columns; previous folds in quarters; generally very good. Much of the first page is taken up with patent medicine advertisements, but also with ads for the 7th edition of Bowditch, steamboat schedules, etc. Other articles include ship arrivals, election notices, tax notices, accounts from the General Assembly, and assorted advertisements and poetry. On page 2 is printed a three-plus column letter of endorsement for the Rev. E. K. Avery, accused of murdering Sarah Cornell. "Thou recollectest how the infidel judge several times stopped the mouth of brother Bristed - thus putting a veto on the Lord's annointed, because he delivered himself of much wrath against the infidels of Fall River who went to Bristol to nab thy Rev. self 'at unawares' and to make you submit to all the indignities of an infidel tribunal, only because thou didst murder Miss Cornell, a member of your church, as if thou hadst not the divine right to dispose of thy flock agreeably to thy holy will and pleasure."
