September 30, 1762
THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, Sept. 30, 1762 Pages 4 and 5 contain a nearly 3 column letter concerning issues in finding an appropriate treaty to end the French & Indian War (Seven Years' War in Europe).
The letter begins: "Among those who clamor against the supposed terms of peace, there are many who are influenced by motives of private advantage..." and further on: "...it is daily urged, that unless we now possess ourselves of the sources of the maritime power of France, we shall soon be involved in another war: But let us consider what further conquests we must make, and what further miseries France will endure before she will yield up every hope of further greatness. Louisiana & the fisheries are doubtless to us very desirable objects..." and more.
Eight pages, 8 1/4 by 10 3/4 inches, nice condition.
