Last Monday evening the horrid tragedy of the 5th of March
was observed with the usual solemnity by a select number of
the friends of constitutional liberty, who met at Mrs.
Clapham's, Kingstreet, and exhibited to public view, a
portrait of that inhuman and cruel massacre, which was
perpetrated near that spot on the 5th of March 1770. . . [19
lines]
At about half after nine o'clock, most of the bells in town
began to toll, and continued till ten, when the paintings
were taken in, and the company retired to their respective
places of abode.
