Good morning, Karen... This has the Drogheda Election in the center... What exactly are you looking for? I keep a copy on disk of everything and can send it to you. Is sit something other than this? Do you have the date? INCIDENTALLY, FOR ANYONE READING THIS - THE CORRECT DATE IS: APRIL 15, 1852 - NOT 1856. I HAD RECENTLY BEEN TYPING 1856. I APOLOGIZE...
