Lloyd's Evening Post

According to the colophon of the July 14–16, 1762 edition, copies of the paper could be purchased from W. Nicoll in St. Paul's Church Yard, and letters to the editor and advertisements were accepted at Lloyd's Coffee House and at the publisher's.

Complicating matters somewhat was another tri-weekly, The London Packet, which was founded in 1771 and in 1777 changed its subtitle to "The New Lloyd's Evening Post".

[3] The Lloyd's Evening Post issue for June 8–10, 1778 announced that the newspaper would henceforth be published by Rivington at 59 Paternoster Row.

Heron died penniless two years later in the fever ward of the St Pancras Workhouse.

[3] The London Chronicle, which by 1801 was selling twice as many copies as Lloyd's Evening Post (as indicated by the amount of stamp duty the papers paid), managed to hang on until 1823.
