Item # 693409

November 19, 1763

THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, Nov. 19, 1763  

* French and Indian war
* re. Paris Peace Treaty


Over half of the first column on the front page is taken up with reports headed: "America" with a New York dateline.
The article concerns the future of the colonies now that a peace treaty has been formalized [Treaty of Paris ending the French & Indian War], along with hopes that: "...the present disturbance amongst the Indians...we yet force these troubles will be of very short duration, for as the late peace has left us in possession of the whole northern continent, by removing the French as a military government...the several tribes of Indians will soon be obliged to return to trade and alliance with the English..." then more on the hoped-for increases in trade and economy.
Eight pages, 8 1/4 by 11 inches, nice condition.
