Delegates, now met in General Congress, were elegantly
entertained by the gentlemen of this city. Having met at
City Tavern about 3 o'clock, they were conducted from thence
to the State-House by the managers of the entertainment,
where they were received by a very large company, composed
of the clergy, such genteel strangers as happened to be in
town, and a number of respectable citizens, making in the
whole near 500.--- After dinner the following toasts were
drank accompanied by music and a discharge of cannon.
