Jamaica journal & reporter: manuscript newspapers

Manuscripts

Although these manuscripts are unsigned, their style, art work, tone, humor and handwriting, suggest that they may be written by Abraham Leech. The two issues of the "Jamaica Journal & Reporter" are dated November 25, 1846 and November 1847. They discuss the Mexican-American war and United States politics during that period through articles and hand-drawn cartoons. The newspapers specifically talk about the war, Colonel Santa Anna, the US and Mexican governments, Wall Street financier Jacob Barker, Reverend Colonel James Hazard Perry, and events happening in Jamaica.
