NEWRY SHIP CANAL NOW OPEN FOR TRAFFIC

The official opening of Newry Ship Canal (Victoria Lock to Albert Basin) occurred on Monday April 15th, 1850 an momentous occasion which this page previously touched upon.

Attached is the front page of The Newry Commercial Telegraph (Tuesday, April 23, 1850) which carried a small advert top left hand corner. It gave notice that the Newry Canal Ship Canal was now open for traffic.

Giving this being a historic event we thought the notice should now be given more prominence placing it inset over the front page.
