The Life of Grish Chunder Ghose - The Founder and First Editor of "the Hindoo Patriot" And "the Bengalee" #226856

The case of Grish Chunder Ghose furnishes indeed a striking illustration of the transitoriness of journalistic fame. Scarcely four decades ago, there was not a cultured household in Bengal or its sister provinces in which the name of the accomplished founder and editor of the Bengalee was not familiar as a household word. There was scarcely a public movement with which his name was not promi nently associated for, Grish was not only a clever journalist, but, as the late Principal Lobb well described him at the public meeting held in his honour at the Town Hall of Calcutta on the i6th of November.
