                           The Times, London

                             June 22, 1815                       

The issue of The Times, London, of June 22, 1815,is "Number 9554."
It has on the third page the news of Wellington's victory at
Waterloo.  For this reason the issue has been reprinted.  The
Library of Congress has both an original and a reprint.  These arc
easily distinguished from each other by the following: 
    The original has four pages of five columns each, the type page
measuring 20 5/8 x 14 5/8 inches.  
    The reprint has four pages of four columns each, the type page
measuring 15 1/8 x lO 3/16 inches.  Much of the contents of the
original is omitted from the reprint and replaced by Wellington's
report of the battle headed "London Gazette Extraordinary. 
Thursday, June 22, 1815," and a list of the "British Officers
Killed and Wounded," both of these items being reprinted from The
Times of June 23, 1815.

     There are reported to be several variations of this reprint. 
Such reprints have little monetary value.
