The ''Dublin Evening Mail'' (renamed the ''Evening Mail'' in 1928) was between 1823 and 1962 one of Dublin's evening newspapers. ==Origins== Launched in 1823, it proved to be the longest lasting evening paper in Ireland. The paper was an instant success, with first editor Joseph Timothy Haydn from Limerick seeing its readership hit 2,500 in a month, making it at that stage (when few could read, and the only people who bought papers were the gentry and aristocracy) the city's top seller. Its readership ebbed and flowed during the century. From the late 1860s until 1892 it was owned by a Dublin businessman called George Tickell. On Tickell's death it was acquired by James Poole Maunsell, who had edited it in the early 1880s and was the son of a former proprietor, Dr Henry Maunsell. James Poole Maunsell died in 1897 and the paper was acquired by Lord Ardilaun after his death in 1915 it was sold to a Cork businessman called Tivy. During the Land War it took a strongly Conservative and pro-landlord position, denouncing Gladstone as an appeaser, comparing the Land League to the Mafia and the Colorado beetle, and demanding that Ireland be subjected to martial law. Though it easily outsold rivals like the ''Dublin Evening Standard'', its readership in 1900 was small compared with national papers such as the ''Evening Telegraph'', which had 26,000 readers, ''The Irish Times'' which had 45,000, and the ''Freeman's Journal'' which had 40,000. Historical copies of the ''Dublin Evening Mail'', dating back to 1824, are available to search and view in digitised form at The British Newspaper Archive.〔(Digitised copies of the ''Dublin Evening Mail'' )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dublin Evening Mail」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
