Printed document: Charter of the City of Hudson, in the State of New Jersey, as passed...1855, amended 1860 with Amendments...1862-1864; and Volunteer Bounty Acts of 1863-1864. Hoboken, N.J., Printed by A. O. Evans, No. 56 [old number] Washington St., 1864. Softcover; 6" x 9", lacking wrappers; pages 1-287 only present. Partially disbound. (500 copies were printed per page [2.] )
Of interest to Hoboken for several reasons:
-the imprint
-survey references to Hoboken
-1855: the City of Hudson was chartered in the same year that Hoboken was incorporated. There are a large number of resolutions included that established offices, official positions, salaries, streets and street names and many other details of creating a new city that would have been typical of what Hoboken also did in this era.
Unfortunately the section that included the Civil War resolutions, Bounty Acts, is not present.Acquisition
