[Rarebooks] FS: 1813 Fourth of July Oration in Boston by Livermore

[Joslin Hall Rare Books, Ephemera & Photographs]

An Oration delivered July the Fourth, 1813 at the Request of the 
Selectmen of Boston, in Commemoration of American Independence.

By Edward St. Loe Livermore. 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.

Self-wrappers. 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]  $75
