A WWI Diary That Never Was

WWI Diary was to have brought you the whole of World War I as it was reported in the papers of the day, exactly 100 years later. For a year I blogged news leading up to the big war, thinking if there was any real interest regular readers would trickle in. They did not. Count: zero. So I stopped blogging the war news. For students of the time, 1914-1918 editions are available on the Web as thousands of individual articles via a Times service called Spiderbites.

Balkan-Turkish Armistice.

New York Times 100 years ago today, April 16, 1913:
One Report Says It Is for Three Days, Another for Ten Days.
CONSTANTINOPLE, April 15.— A persistent report is in circulation here that a ten days' armistice, beginning at 6 o'clock last evening, has been concluded between Turkey and Bulgaria.

PARIS, April 15.— A three days' armistice has been arranged between Turkey and the Balkan allies, according to a semi-official dispatch from Constantinople.
