Schoharie Free Library

LHLC-Box 1. Schoharie Republican, Vol. VIII, No. 34, August 28, 1828. 12 x 10 cm folded.

Although there are only four pages in this lone copy of a very locally printed paper, it is chock full of interesting tidbits.

The price was $2.00 per year, delivered to your door. Insolvent Notices would be posted on the Court House door for six weeks for Two Dollars and Fifty Cents, while the front page contains an article extolling the "Virtues of Poverty." And the reward for returning a run-away servant to his master? Six cents.
