The Boston Weekly Messenger (1811–1861) was a newspaper in Boston, Massachusetts, in the 19th century. Publishers/editors included James Cutler and Nathan Hale.[1][2] It began as "a political journal, established in 1811 by a company of young federalists, chief among whom was John Lowell."[3][4] It consisted "largely of current news taken from the Boston Daily Advertiser;" the two papers shared an office at no.6 Congress Street.[5][6][7]
