DERRY JOURNAL 250: 'To the Nobility, Gentry, Clergy, and Inhabitants...' The very first Derry Journal, June 3, 1772
The following is the very first article published in the first edition of the ‘London-Derry Journal & General Advertiser’, as written by owner and editor George Douglas. In a prophetic column/ letter also carried on the front page and witten just a few years before the American and French revolutions and uprising in Ireland, and addressed to the then British Prime Minister Lord North, the writer ‘Junius’ warns: ‘The late revolution in Denmark, my Lord, will produce, in all human probability, an entire alteration in the whole fyfedom of Europe’.
