Feb 8th, 2017: Wallpaper News
 

During the siege of Vicksburg, MS in 1863, which started on May 22nd, everything was in short supply including paper.
The Daily Citizen newspaper printed its last six issues, starting on June 22nd, in just four columns on a single sheet of wallpaper.
The July 2nd, (last) issue said in part:
The Yankee Generalissimo surnamed Grant has expressed his intention of dining in Vicksburg on the Fourth of July.
… Ulysses must get into the city before he dines in it.

On the 4th of July Vicksburg fell and Union troops printed the paper with the type they found set, probably from the 2nd, although
it might have been prepared for the next edition but not used. They added a final paragraph:
Two days bring about great changes, The banner of the Union floats over Vicksburg. Gen. Grant has ‘caught the rabbit:’ he has
dined in Vicksburg, and he did bring his dinner with him. The ‘Citizen’ lives to see it. For the last time it appears on ‘Wall-paper.’
No more will it eulogize the luxury of mule-meat and fricasseed kitten — urge Southern warriors to such diet never-more.
This is the last wall-paper edition, and is, excepting this note, from the types as we found them.
It will be valuable hereafter as a curiosity.
