EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Republican Herald- Extra, 27 August 1842" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The lithograph, created by the American School in the 19th century, measures 45.6x31.5 cm and is part of the Gilder Lehrman Collection in New York. The image showcases an extra edition of a Rhode Island newspaper published by Simons that features a letter from Marcus Morton, former governor of Massachusetts. In this letter, Morton addresses the Dorr Rebellion and emphasizes its national importance. He highlights how the Whig Government overwhelmingly supports the old Charter government while Democratic newspapers rally behind the new Constitution. Although Morton claims neutrality, his words clearly align with Thomas Wilson Dorr and his supporters during this turbulent time. The poster-like format of this broadside captures attention and conveys urgency as it disseminates news about state constitutions, wars like the Seminole War, Native American affairs, and other historical events shaping America's past. As we delve into this historic document through engraving techniques employed by William Simons (1785?-1845), we are reminded of our nation's journey towards democracy and constitutional rights. This print serves as a window into United States history during the early 19th century when political tensions ran high and citizens fought for their voices to be heard.
