The Mechanics' Magazine : ウィキペディア英語版 | Joseph Clinton Robertson
Joseph Clinton Robertson (c.1787–1852), pseudonym Sholto Percy, was a Scottish patent agent, writer and periodical editor. He was a political radical prominent in the early days of the working-class press in London, and in the debates within the Mechanics Institute movement. ==Early life== He was born about 1787, the son of Colin Robertson of Perth, Scotland, a doctor who was required to leave Scotland, and of Grant Thompson, daughter of Bailie Adam Thompson. His family was of the Robertsons of Lude, his upbringing was Catholic, and it is assumed he was born in Perth, the birthplace London given in the ''Dictionary of National Biography'' being a later fabrication. Reacting against his background he went to Edinburgh and became involved with radicals there. By 1811 he had written for the ''Spy'' of James Hogg. He went to London in 1819, and did hack work for the publisher Thomas Boys.〔Palmer, p. 433.〕
