NHG-E.777.028
24 Jun 1777:43 (2/58)
Boston, June 12. The British pirate frigate, Milford, after
a wearisome struggle, of 14 days, got the Continental brig
Cabot, (which was mentioned to have ran ashore on Jeboge
Rock, Nova Scotia, some time since) off, and sent her to
Halifax. . . On her arrival, there was a day of general
rejoicing; guns firing, drums beating, colours displayed;
and the good loyal, runaway Tories (from this town) who
remain there, were congratulating each other, on the
glorious (as they said) acquisition. . .
