My father, a former submarine combat vet from WW2, use to say that the only good day in any war was the day it ended. He collected these newspapers of each of the wars that the United States has been in as a way of making that point. With his passing it is time to find new homes for these treasures hopefully to remind more young Americans that the best day of a war is the last day.

You are looking on a October 7, 1805 issue of the PORTLAND GAZETTE newspaper.

This newspaper features the terms of the peace treaty ending the WAR with the BARBARY PIRATES in Tripoli. Which is the basis of the open stanza of the Marine Corp anthem and the young republics first overseas military success.
