Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. First edition. A single issue of this newspaper. Folio. Two leaves folded to make eight pages. Printed in seven columns. Central folds, toning to cheap newsprint, small chips, a good or a little better copy. Encompasses news, opinion, church and society notes, ads, etc. that feature the broader African-American community of the city; with additional news and sports from the wider world. Apparently this was the final issue under this title, according to a front page note that the two papers (*Eagle* and *Truth*) would resume its former status." The lead front page story: "Negro Man Burned to Death by White Men" relates the story of a night watchman beaten by white men and then left in a shed that they then set on fire. A rare Alabama newspaper.
