Same-day printing of the Monroe Doctrine in an extra for the Washington Republican and congressional examiner. One of the most important lines includes: "the American continents, by the free and independent condition which they have assumed and maintained, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for further colonization by any European powers." Text in five columns with ink stains that create small amounts of text loss. Writing and calculations on verso. Signature on verso is hard to read, but might be "Bernard V. Stewart."
