Mac-Talla

<i>Mac-Talla</i> ("Echo") was the name of a newspaper written in (Scottish) Gaelic. It was published weekly (and later bi-weekly) in Sydney, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, between May 28, 1892, and June 24, 1904--around 540 issues in all. Its editor, Jonathan MacKinmon (1869-1944), born in Inverness County, Cape Breton, was twenty-three years old when he launched <i>Mac-Talla</i>, which was at the time the only such Gaelic publication in the world. This is the Feb. 4, 1893 edition, volume 1, number 37, four pages.
