Boston Traveller is first published.

It is published by Willard Badger and Royal Porter from an office at 31 State Street. Originally a two-cent, twice-weekly bulletin for stagecoach listings, it becomes a daily evening paper on April 1, 1845. A morning edition first appears on October 27, 1856 and ceases in 1898. After taking over four other papers, it advertises itself as the largest evening newspaper in New England. A popular feature becomes the “Saturday Review of the Week” by editor Charles Creighton Hazewell, which appears until his death in 1883. The newspaper changes its spelling to Traveler at the turn of the century, moves to 33 State Street in 1851, then to 307 Washington Street, then 76 Summer Street. Purchased by the Boston Herald on July 1, 1912, it moves to 171 Tremont Street, then to a new building on Mason Street in 1932.* It becomes the Traveler and Evening Herald, then the Boston Traveler on May 8, 1914. It ceases publication in 1967 (1965) (1912-BJT).
