Original publisher's prospectus for "The Capture and Execution of John Brown," by Elijay Avey. Claims the book is "crammed from cover to cover with the most thrilling events in the life of the fearless, justice-loving John Brown." Avey was an eye witness to the execution, who later wrote a book on the event and Brown's life. Collin was the publisher's agent.
