London Evening Post cuts country delivery amid excise controversy
The Clerks of the Roads in the Post Office ordered no copies of the London Evening Post be sent to country customers. The move appears linked to letters opposing the late Excise Scheme and the reception of noted members who opposed the project. The paper remains popular for pursuing the country’s true interests and readers are to seek delivery through friends or other means.
