"Advice from the Scandal club" was included in the columns of a Review of the state of British nation from Feb. 19, 1704-April 24, 1705. Owing to the vast amount of material received it was decided to publish a monthly supplement beginning Sept. 1704 (cf. no. 58, Sept. 23, 1704). This supplement appeared in five numbers from Sept. 1704-Jan. 1705. The Sept. 1704 issue (announced in the Review for Oct. 21, 1704) had the title: A supplementary journal to the Advice from the Scandal club.
Liberal paper originally established (1764) in opposition to the Sherborne Mercury. Includes summary of the weeks news from London, with extracts from the London Gazette and other London papers, provincial and colonial news, correspondence, regional farm news and commodity prices, west country news, poetry, and advertisements, some illustrated with small cuts.
