England's first daily newspaper.

Published by Elizabeth Mallet, printer and bookseller, "next Door to the
King's-Arms Tavern at Fleet-Bridge".

It was a single sheet, the front filled with news items from foreign
papers (Holland, France), and the back with advertisements.

E.Mallet concealed her gender in her one editorial comment, which stated
that she would thereafter make no comments on the foreign news stories,
"supposing other People to have Sense enough to make Reflections for
themselves".
