25 Jun 1770:11 (1813 Supplement)
[from London papers, April 28, about events in Boston] On
Monday night (which was the 5th) about 9 o'clock, the alarm-
bells were rung as in cases of fire, and the multitude
assembled. The supposed fire was said to be in King street,
in order that the people might be drawn thither. On
examination, the report of fire was found to be groundless,
and the real intention of the alarm appeared, viz. the
bringing the populace to the place of the intended action.
