American should be compelled to submit to England...

Item # 700171 ·

THE GLOCESTER JOURNAL, England (now spelled Gloucester), Dec. 5, 1768  Various British news reports throughout, with its finest feature being the handsome masthead with two detailed engravings and the ornate lettering. This is from the period when the troubling relationship between England and America was coming to a head. The Boston Massacre would be less than 2 years away.
Page 3 has a brief item noting: "...were of opinion that the people of America should be compelled to submit to the authority of the Mother country...". 
Four pages, full red tax stamp on the front page, slightly irregular at the margins, nice condition.
