The ''Manchester Times'' was a weekly newspaper published in Manchester, England, from 1828 to 1922. It was known for its free trade radicalism. From 1828 to 1847 the newspaper was edited by Archibald Prentice, a political radical and advocate of free trade.〔 After swallowing the ''Manchester Gazette'', the paper took the title ''Manchester Times and Gazette'' in 1831.〔 In 1835 the paper published a series of letters by Richard Cobden, and Prentice subsequently made it a mouthpiece for the Anti-Corn-Law League. In 1849 the paper merged with the ''Manchester Examiner'', recently founded as a radical competitor after a falling-out between Prentice and Cobden, and became the ''Manchester Examiner and Times''. (The ''Examiner'' had been founded by the young Edward Watkin, whose father was noted for his involvement in the Anti-Corn-Law League.) Briefly known as the ''Manchester Weekly Examiner & Times'' in 1856-57, the paper settled down under the title ''Manchester Weekly Times and Examiner'' (or simply ''Manchester Weekly Times'') in 1858.〔 The newspaper's last issue appeared on 22 July 1922. 3,973 issues of the ''Manchester Times'', from between 1828 and 1900, are available to read in digitised form at the British Newspaper Archive.〔(Digitised copies of the ''Manchester Times'' ) at the British Newspaper Archive〕 ==References== 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「Manchester Times」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
