THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, January 20, 1774 

* The troubling tea situation in America 
* Pre Revolutionary War original 

An inside pg. has a report taken from the New York Gazette with content concerning the troubling tea situation, including: "...summons from Gov. Hutchinson to consider a petition of the Tea Commissioners in this town praying to resign themselves & the property committed to their care...& that measures may be directed for the landing & securing the teas until the petitioners can be at liberty openly & safely to dispose of the same...".
Another report from Newport notes: "...assured that 50 or 60 families in this town who have constantly used tea in their houses...have lately entirely refrained from that herb & that numbers of others are on the point of abandoning the disgraceful practice of tea drinking." and another item includes: "...10 days before him sailed a ship for Boston with tea, chests 600; a ship for Phila. was fallen down the river with 600; a ship for Charles Town ready to sail, 200...in all 2200 chests." and another item: "...find the tea was not then arrived; the Commissioners had refused to resign, though they had asked protection of the government to defend them in an intended treason against its constitution!" plus there are even more reports on the tea situation (see photos).
