Description | The Daily Nashville Union emerged during the Civil War and was one of the few papers established and sustained through the conflict. Led by editor S.C. Mercer, it staunchly supported the Union cause, earning government patronage and utilizing telegraphic updates for timely reporting. Its motto, "For Freedom and Nationality," reflected its unwavering stance. Despite tensions with rival papers like the Nashville Dispatch, it remained steadfast in its principles. After several changes in ownership and leadership, the paper ceased publication in 1866 due to declining business. Yet, its commitment to the Union cause echoed in its final words, quoting Daniel Webster: "Liberty and Union, now and forever, one and inseparable." NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1862 of this newspaper. |
