Has Newspaper Print
ed On Wallpaper

War can create almost any kind
of condition in country, and dur
ing the Civil War, newspaper pub
fishers had trouble finding newsprint
on which to print their papers
Turning to the next best thing,
news of various bitterly fought bat
ties was printed on wall paper.
Mrs. Grafton Paden of Kenton,
has such a paper. 1t belonged to
her husband, she says, and although
printed nearly rs years ago, it is in
a good state of preservation.
The "wallpaper-newspaper" was
called the "Daily Citizen" and was
published on Thursday, July 2, 1863,
at Vicksburg, Miss. 1t consists of
one sheet and is printed on the back
of a small piece of floral designed
wall paper.
The stories are short and deal
mostly with the war, spirit of the
southern people, and southern army
leaders.
