Edward Eveleth Powars
Edward Eveleth Powars was a printer in Boston and Worcester, Massachusetts, in the late 18th century. He published the ''Independent Chronicle'' (1776–1779), the ''Boston Evening-Post'' (1781–1784), the ''American Herald'' (1784–1790), and ''The Argus''. He worked with Nathaniel Willis as "Powars & Willis."In 1781 he kept his printing-office in Boston, at "the lower end of State-Street, over Mr. Simon Eliot's snuff-store". He moved to Worcester in 1788, "having been humiliatingly neglected ... for printing a free paper". By 1791 he had returned to Boston. Around 1796 he lived on Temple Street.
Around 1803 he worked "as a compositor in the office of Samuel Etheridge, in Charlestown". In 1813 "he held the office of Messenger to the Governor and Council of the Commonwealth."
He later became a traveling bookseller. He died on an expedition to the Western States. Provided by Wikipedia
