son of Pious and Sober Conversation,

full Providence may not be offensive; but
rather a Warning to all others to watch
against the WIles of our Grand Adver-

And so the News Letter went on edify-
ing and amusing it's little circle Of read
ers until 1719, when the Boston Gazette,
the second paper in the colonies, was es-
tablished Campbell in the meantime
had ceased to be postmaster and the edi-
tor of The Gazette, William Brool1er,
was his successor. Brooker waged relent-
less journalistic war upon Campbell, and
two ears later another editor began to
fire red-hot newspaper shot at him. This
was James Franklin, the elder brother
of the celebrated Benjamin Franklin
who in 1721 started The New England
Courant The invectives used by these
rival editors must have gTievously
shocked the good old Bostonians. Frank
| lin especially was no respector of persons
or places. and for assa=ling the authori-
ties was landed in Jail and his paper or
dered to be stopped. But he get over
the difficulty oleverly by substituting for
his own name that of Benjamin Frank
| lin as printer. Campbell, however. final
| ly became weary, and disgusted and re-
tired from the field, his paper passing
| into the hands of Bartholomew Green,
one of the best and most celebrated of
early New England printers. The News
Letter suspended publication in 1776,
having experienced many changes up to
that time A complete file of this first
of Americas s newspapers is not in exist
ence Besides the very rare numbers in
the New York Historical Society, the
Lenox Library has small collection,
and some scattering numbers are to be
