Sunday Chronicle

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Sunday Chronicle was a newspaper in the United Kingdom, published from 1885 to 1955.

The newspaper was founded in

Manningham Mills strikers. However, Blatchford was sacked immediately after the strike and instead founded the Clarion with the paper's drama critic, Alexander M. Thompson.[2]

Hulton's son, also

James Drawbell was appointed editor, positioning it as a middle market newspaper and increasing circulation.[4]

In 1955 the Chronicle was merged into the Empire News.[5] The Empire News itself disappeared in 1960 when it was merged with the News of the World.
