The front page of this issue is a drawing of the commanding officers at Fort Sumter, less than a month before an attack on the fort would begin the hostilities of the Civil War. The news focuses on the Union forts that have already been turned over to the South and on Sumter, where a stalemate is underway. There is an illustration of a steam boat. The issue also contains a number of chapters from Charles Dickens's "Great Expectations" in their earliest American publication. The story is accompanied by a number of illustrations by John McLenan. Duplicate of GLC04661.06.
