DEATHS.
The United States Chronicle
Political, Commercial and Historical.
This was the full title of the second paper established by Ben- nett Wheeler in Providence. The price was nine shillings per year. It was published on the "west side of the river next door to Mr. Jacob Whitman." The first number was issued Thursday, Jan. I, 1784. It was the same size as the "American Journal" (4 pages, 12 columns).
Feb. 21, 1793, he left off "Political, Commercial and Historical" from his title and set "The United States Chronicle" in a new letter and added in outline the arms of the State and the United States, retaining four columns instead of three, making the columns so much narrower. Jan. 7, 1796, he returned to the three columns as before, but May 19 of the same year went back to his four columns again.
Oct. 3, 1784, and forward the publication day was Wednesday ; Jan. 6, 1785, and forward Thursday. Jan. 5, 1786, he first showed in outline the arms of the United States and the State on his title.
When Thursday was Thanksgiving Friday was publication day except in two instances when it was Wednesday.
During its career it had several locations. As before stated he commenced "Next door to Jacob Whitman's." July 1, 1784, it was published at Fenner's Corners opposite the Market ; July 13, 1786, in Westminster street opposite Theodore Foster's, Esq .; June 14, 1792, in Market House Chambers; Sept. 29, 1796, in Westminster street, a few rods westward of the Great Bridge; Sept. 19, 1799, Westminster street, near the Great Bridge; Aug. 1, 1800, No. I Westminster street; March 4, 1801, No. 4 same street; May 7, 1801, four doors westward of the Exchange Bank, Westminster street.
March 29, 1804, he removes his personal advertisement at head of first column first page to the bottom of the last column on the last page.

VITAL RECORD OF RHODE ISLAND
Nov. 3, 1803, Mr. Wheeler retires from the business and offers at this time a house to let on High street opposite the Meeting House.
Jan. 5, 1804, John Wheeler, his eldest son, is proprietor and so remained until its last number, May 17, 1804.
Of the files of this newspaper that of the Historical Society is now in seven bound volumes. The Providence Journal had a set in three volumes presented them by the late Charles J. Wheeler, broken, dating from Jan. I, 1789, to Dec. 25, 1800. This later file is now in custody of the Historical Society. Brown University Library has broken numbers. From these we have been able to see the complete set.
Mr. Wheeler took a pride in book work and several of his jobs in this line are now in existence which showed very good work and taste in the printing line.
