May 15, 1863, American Citizen (Canton, Mississippi)
We regret to learn that the office of the Vicksburg Whig with its entire contents, was destroyed by fire on Saturday afternoon last. In the present scarcity of printing material this is indeed a heavy loss. We hope our friend Shannon will be able to refurnish himself with material, and that the Whig will again rise like a Phœnix from its ashes, and soar again on the highest wing of popular favor.
