On November 1, 1793, Angfcll admitted Paul James
Sullivan into partnership. Little is known about Sulli-
van. He was active as a Mason; he was a charter member
and second master of the Concordia Lodge no. 13, of
Baltimore;6 he probably was a soldier in the Revolu-
tionary Wars he was "amongst the brave and generous
warriors who left this town Frederick?] in defence of
the happy laws of this state,"7 but none of his military
records have been found.

The partnership of Angell and Sullivan continued
until June 11, 1794, when Angell inserted a notice to
the effect that "The Maryland Journal will in future
be conducted under the name of the public's humble ser-
vant, James Angell."8 Sullivan may have retired because
of ill health, for he died in Frederick on September
20, 1794.9

On Octobr 31, 1794, Angell announced simply that
he Intended to "go into a different line of business."10
He was, probably employed by the Baltimore Customs
