Published by authority had been omitted by Campbell for two years, and in 1725 Green restored it. In December, 1726, the title was changed to
human
The Weekly News-Letter, and subsequently, in 1730, to
gpt
The Boston Weekly News-Letter, and the numberings of the previous issues were added together, and the total reached 1,396, in October, 1730. No other alteration took place until the death of Green, when in Jan. 4, 1733, John Draper, his son-in-law, succeeded him. Draper printed the
human
News-Letter for thirty years, and died November, 1762. His son, Richard Draper, continued the paper and enlarged the title to
gpt
The Boston Weekly News-Letter and New England Chronicle. In about a year the title was again altered to
human
The Massachusetts Gazette and Boston Weekly News-Letter, and was decorated with the King's Arms. Richard took a kinsman as partner, and the paper now bore this imprint:

Published by Richard Draper, Printer to the Governor and Council, and by Samuel Draper, at the printing-office, in Newbury Street. Richard Draper continued the paper, and in May, 1768, a singular arrangement took place between the
human
Massachusetts Gazette (or News-Letter) and the
gpt
Boston Post Boy and Advertiser, and both papers were
human
Published by authority, in other words as government papers. Each paper was one-half
gpt
The Massachusetts Gazette, published by authority, and the other half bore its own proper name; and Draper called it the
human
Adam and Eve paper. This plan continued until September, 1769, and then its title
gpt
The Massachusetts Gazette and Boston Weekly News-Letter, was resumed. In May, 1774, Draper took a partner, and the next month he died, and his widow, Margaret Draper, continued the paper in the interest of the loyalists or tories, until the evacuation of Boston, and then it ceased. She went to Halifax and then to England, and there obtained a pension. The
