Eric - Can you provide any more information about this paper? For instance is "Sentinel" the exact title as it appeared on the masthead? I have tried an OCLC search and searched our catalog without any success. Unfortunately many of the early Black papers have disappeared because no one saved any issues. I would be very interested to know if you find any copies of this paper and where they are. I will forward your request to a colleague with the Virginia Newspaper Project. Perhaps she can help you. There are are film archives of African American newspapers that the library of Congress filmed some years ago. You might try that avenue. I believe we have cataloged all of the Va. titles in the LC series so it should appear in our catalog if so. Good luck with your search. Tom H.
