26 Dec 1771:1713,1714 (1/43)
The new Baptist meeting-house in this town being finished,
was opened yesterday.  We hear that the exercises of the day
were introduced by singing an anthem taken out of the 122d
psalm.  A suitable discourse was preached . . . [4 lines]
The solemnity was then concluded with a second anthem well
adapted to the occasion.  The singing was performed
incomparable well by a select company, which gave great
satisfaction to a crowded audience.
