Abstract
This so-called "coffin broadside" was printed during the 1828 Presidential campaign. It tells voters that candidate Andrew Jackson is unfit for the office of President, having "illegally and wantonly shed the blood of his countrymen and fellow soldiers" by ordering six militiamen executed on 1815 Feb. 21 after a military trial in which they were convicted after leaving camp to return home, although their tours of duty were not up. The soldiers memorialized are: Edward Lindsey, Henry Lewis, David Morrow, Jacob Webb, John Harris, and David Hunt. The broadside stresses that they realized their error, returned to camp voluntarily, and offered to resume their service. Below the coffins is an anonymous poem, "Mournful Tragedy". It is believed this was the first coffin broadside to be issued. The publisher was John Binns, editor and publisher of the Democratic Press in Philadelphia.
