NEW FACTS AND WRITINGS FROM AN UNKNOWN MAGAZINE BY HENRY FIELDING, THE HISTORY OF OUR OWN TIMES.

This article reports that "The History of Our Own Times," was a fortnightly magazine published by the London bookseller Charles Corbett early in 1741. It was founded and abandoned all within two months, from 15 January to 5 March, making a run of only four issues. Still, the History of our own Times was barely noticed while it lived and has continued unknown since. Hardly any copies of it exist, probably because there never were very many in the first place. The magazine was designed and partly written by Henry Fielding, as the contents plainly show, and it must be added to the list of four periodical papers with which he has always been connected.
