Framed and delivered
After reading my series on the 150th anniversary of the Concord Monitor, old friend Chuck Douglas brought in this framed copy of the May 23, 1864, first edition and presented it to the Monitor.
Douglas is a prominent Concord lawyer and political rabble-rouser, a former state Supreme Court justice and former congressman. Here he stands with his gift before the Concord Coach in the lobby of the Monitor building. The photo is by Geoff Forester.
Posts of the Monitor series, in the order I posted them are here, here, here and here.
Thanks, Chuck.
