[More about the Boston Massacre, 5 Mar 1770; 23, line 26:] 
No wonder that when the bells soon after rang as for fire, &
the people in that same part of the town, came into the
street with their buckets, they were told by some, as a
gentleman who was a witness in court for the prisoners said
they were, that they had better bring their clubs than their
buckets.--. . .
