Description:

Printed in two columns. 'A record of an historic meeting held at the Manchester Free Trade Hall on New Year's Eve, 1862, to found the Union and Emancipation Society, one of a number of pro-Union groups which sprang up across Britain that year. Intended to show working class support for the anti-slavery side of the Civil War, the broadside has added weight for being the production of a city that was one of Europe's largest cotton producers' - [excerpt from sale catalogue of Bow Windows Bookshop, Lewes].
