Biographical History
The The Independent was a pre-civil war anti-slavery newspaper founded in 1848 by Henry C. Bowen, a businessman, journalist and philanthropist from Woodstock, Connecticut. Originally a Congregationalist journal, the The Independent became interdenominational and increasingly involved in political issues. It absorbed Harper's Weekly in 1916 and in 1923 relocated to Boston. Editors included Bowen, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, and Assyriologist William Hayes Ward.
