Brooklyn Daily Eagle (1841-1902)
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle used to be one of the major papers in the New York metropolitan region. The Brooklyn Public Library has digitized this collection and made it freely available to the public. This is great for historical research. http://www.brooklynpubliclibrary.org/eagle/
