July 28, 1767

THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, July 28, 1767  The entire front page & some of page 2 are taken up with a lengthy report on: "...regulating the Turnpike Roads of this Kingdom." Over one-third of page 2 has reports headed: "America" including items from New York, Newport, Falmouth, Goshen, Connecticut; and Boston (see). 
Another page has a report concerning Russian discoveries which include the coast of North America with mention of "Captain Bering" (photos show portions).
One-third of another page has a report from Boston, mostly taken up with an address of the House of Representatives to the Governor which does more than hint of the trouble brewing with England, including: "...We are obliged to say that there is the deepest concern among the people of this province that after they have shewn every possible mark of loyalty it has yet been represented to his Majesty, that a degree of ill temper remain in his colony of Massachusetts Bay..." (see)
Eight pages, 8 1/2 by 11 inches, very nice condition.
