For a locally compact group $ \mathcal{G} $, we introduce and study a class of locally convex topologies
$\tau $ on the measure algebra
$M( \mathcal{G} )$ of
$ \mathcal{G} $. In particular, we show that the strong dual of
$(M( \mathcal{G} ), \tau )$ can be identified with a closed subspace of the Banach space
$M\mathop{( \mathcal{G} )}\nolimits ^{\ast } $; we also investigate some properties of the locally convex space
$(M( \mathcal{G} ), \tau )$.
