Livermore, Edward St. Loe. An Oration delivered July the Fourth, 1813
at the Request of the Selectmen of Boston, in Commemoration of American
Independence. Printed in Boston by Chester Stebbins in 1813.
As might be expected in the midst of the War of 1812, Livermore spends a
more time commenting on the present than the past. A Dartmouth graduate
(1800), Livermore was at various times counselor-at-law, U.S. Attorney
to the Circuit Court, Superior Court judge, and Congressman.
Disbound. 5.25”x8.25”, 40 pages. Minor soil, some wear, title page
detached. With several ink amendments on the title page/cover- “An” has
been changed to “Anarcotic”, and beneath “at the Request of the
Selectmen of Boston” has been added the line- “to a sleeping audience,
who did not hear”. [43543] $100
