April 05, 1757
THE LONDON CHRONICLE OR, UNIVERSAL EVENING POST dated April 5, 1757. This 8 page issue is 249 years old! Various news from London and other parts of Europe also with some interesting advertisements as well. An inside page has a nice article headed: "Extract from the authentic & circumstantial Account of the Confinement, Behaviour, and Death of Admiral Byng" which takes over 4 columns. A complete newspaper measuring about 7 by 11 1/2 inches and is in great condition. Fine and very early newspaper.
