Kingston Ulster County Gazette of 1766 glimpsed in old copy
The writer examines a Kingston Ulster County weekly from the 1760s, noting its pre railroad era content, ads for a saw mill and a slave for sale, and local news shaped by the Washington death and Franco Austrian war reports. It contrasts then and now while recounting peculiarities like ash bartering and old editorial tales.
